Troed-Y-Rhiw Isaf, Cairn l and ll
Troed-Y-Rhiw Isaf, Cairn l and ll submitted by geoffstickland : Cairn 1, a gassy bank. It is pleasing that the Army -which exercises on the Eppypnt Range - have protected this site (and the nearby Tri Chrugeau) with fencing to prevent accidental damage by military vehicles.
