Footpath in woodland in the Gwaun valley on May Day Bluebells grow below the twisted moss covered trunk of this old tree, possibly once part of a laid hedge.

Young cattle show their interest These young cattle were very interested in me, their new two-legged friend, and pursued me down the field to the stile with avid curiosity tempered with very little nervousness.

The Dyffryn Arms Free House, Pontfaen, Cwm Gwaun Proprietor Bessie Davies so the pub, I believe, is often known as Tafarn Bessie and rightly so. A &#039;parlour inn&#039; summarises the style of service, now a genuine rarity and the interior is a time capsule, with a sepia photograph of Edward VIII as a young Prince of Wales and a portrait of our present Queen as a newly crowned monarch. Bass in jugs, bi-lingual conversations and parking on the road outside. Don&#039;t expect gastro-pub lunches.

The Dyffryn Arms Free House, Pontfaen, Cwm Gwaun

Proprietor Bessie Davies so the pub, I believe, is often known as Tafarn Bessie and rightly so. A 'parlour inn' summarises the style of service, now a genuine rarity and the interior is a time capsule, with a sepia photograph of Edward VIII as a young Prince of Wales and a portrait of our present Queen as a newly crowned monarch. Bass in jugs, bi-lingual conversations and parking on the road outside. Don't expect gastro-pub lunches.

Entering Cwm Gwaun The roadsigns give this name to the area around Pontfaen, though the valley extends for miles each way. Ahead is the local primary school, and I was intrigued by the activity at the fete advertised on it of sheep racing.
