Looking down Park Hill near Cefn Golau and over the town of Tredegar. A similar view to one taken five years earlier http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/723221 . Obvious changes are that the canopy over the pumps of the former petrol station in the foreground has been removed, and a wind turbine has been constructed in the Rassau Industrial Estate in the distance http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/2872372 . Also visible are the mounds of disturbed earth on the moorland beyond the houses and trees. These are the result of the current construction work along the A465 http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/3652909 . An imminent change will be the construction of the Circuit of Wales motor racing circuit that will eat up 830 acres of the distant moorland behind the Rassau Industrial Estate.
