Carreg Coetan Arthur is a megalithic monument in Newport in Pembrokeshire West Wales. It is the almost complete remains of the chamber of a portal tomb from the Neolithic period.

The man-sized dolmen has four upright stones supporting, with the large capstone resting on only three. Typical features of the Quoit are: the H-shaped front with two large -scale portal stones and the high shutter plate therebetween; a portal stone, however, was removed.

The great height of the portal region is underscored by the shape of the cover stone. The chamber behind the portal is small and rectangular. The stone on the west side is missing. A small bump in the ground, about two feet in front of the front could point to material for a hill. From the original Überhügelung of the portal tomb is at the rear nothing left.

Excavations have small amounts of burnt human bones and two small pieces of pottery cups and three potsherds of an ornate pot unearthed. The radiocarbon dating suggests a date of origin of Dolmens around 2700 BC. Nearby is the Berry Hill is Fort
