Looking down on the Afon Disgynfa Descending northeast below the impressive ramparts of the iron-age hill fort Penycloddiau, one is soon away from the network of paths, though there is a track shown on the OS map some way to the east, dropping down to a public footpath which crosses the valley a considerable distance below. From this point (just inside the square) it is almost a hundred metres vertical back up to the fort, perhaps explaining why it seems to have been so little visited by geograph aficionados!

Windbreak NE of Penycloddiau With a southwesterly wind, this side of Penycloddiau, well below the ramparts of the iron-age hill fort, is fairly sheltered already, but this cruciform windbreak will provide additional protection in virtually any wind direction. Being well off the beaten paths along the tops and round the fort, it's likely to be far more used by livestock than by walkers having lunch, so I'm sure sheep find themselves grateful for having a farmer with enough benevolence to provide such a well-built and maintained structure.
