After the hailstorm - north of Carreglefn Looking along this unclassified road, to the north of Carreglefn, just after a hailstorm whiteout that forced me to stop driving. I was fortunate to be in this quiet location at the time, but there were a number of accidents on the main A55 road, possibly caused by the same event.

Melin Mechell mill This mill is also known as Melin Minffordd and Melin Maen Arthur (the name of a nearby hill). Nothing is known of its origin and it first appears in the historical records in 1883 when Robert Parry is listed as the miller in Slater's Directory. It continued to be run by Parrys until its closure sometime around World War I.
