View ESE on the road to Fochriw, just off the Heads of the Valleys road. The wagon-body across the small reservoir (?dried up) was the only railway remnant. Nowadays, 25 years later, all is totally changed, with a complex of roads - even an artificial hill, but the mountain (Twyn-y-Waun, 1,474 ft.)) is still there.
