Anglesey visualisations installed

Three visualisations of key archaeological sites in Anglesey were created by Aaron Watson in 2015. These featured the Neolithic monuments of Bryn Celli Ddu and Barclodiad y Gawres, and the Iron Age site at Llyn Cerrig Bach. The images were since been integrated into a series of information panels produced by Marion Blockley and Cadw.
