Llwybr ym Mharc Natur Ynys Dawela. Yn wreiddiol ffermiwyd y parc gan Ffarm Ynys Dawela ac yn ystod y bedwaredd ganrif ar bymtheg fe agorwyd pwll glo o'r un enw ar y safle a lle bu caeau glesion cafwyd tomenni duon. Heddiw, trawsnewidiwyd y ardal yn llwyr drwy blannu coed collddail a chreu llwybrau newydd. A footpath at Ynys Dawela Nature Reserve. Originally, the land was toiled by Ynys Dawela Farm but during the nineteenth century a colliery was sunk and the once green fields and hedges were replaced by black waste tips. Today, the tips have gone and there has been a total transformation with the planting of deciduous trees and the creation of new footpaths.
