Notices at Dolgoch Falls

Two notices in the Welsh and English language (the one to the right is an information board), and there is a Victorian style post box below the first notice; it's coloured in black, a sight I don't see often.

The nearest of the waterfalls to the car park at Dolgoch. The beam of sunlight does little take the chill away from this shaded, north facing valley, thick with mosses and ferns.
