"Bird hide", Glansevern Estate

This little summerhouse at the confluence of the Rhiw and the Severn is optimistically described as a "bird hide" in the guide to Glansevern Gardens. Although ostensibly sited for viewing birds on the River Severn, it is in fact manifestly unfit for that purpose - the entrance is round the front next to the river, there are no convenient viewing windows and the view of the river is blocked by a number of trees.
