Much of the village clings to the steep sides of the Cwm Degwel ravine with C19 workers' cottages and terraces closely packed in along small street and alleys. In 1994 there was a serious landslip that destroyed houses and necessitated major drainage and stabilization work. The post-glacial soil structure of the area is the reason for the instability.
