Bwlch Maen Gwynedd
Bwlch Maen Gwynedd submitted by postman : Perching as it does on its thin ridge connecting Cadair Berwyn to Tomle (Vote or comment on this photo)
Cairn in Wrexham

Perched on a thin ridge connecting cadair Berwyn to Tomle. A delicate cairn with a hollow in its top. Visible from miles to either north or south. Without the mist it would be good to linger a while, very good scenery.
