Llanbedr Ystrad Yw through the trees

Looking west from the lane across the valley: it is possible to reach the village via a steep path down to the river but motor vehicles have to take a longer way round. The village's full name, Llanbedr Ystrad Yw, meaning St Peter's church in the yew vale, goes back to the early-mediaeval origins of this once-important locality lying in the peaceful, wooded, embrace of the Black Mountains.
