Distance
1
Footpath with rock-art
This footpath leads around the bottom of the scree slopes reaching down from Pen-y-corddyn mawr. The screes may not be natural, but the result of millennia of pecking and scratching at the valuable Carboniferous Limestone outcrop.

Disused quarries, Rhyd y Foel
The outcrop of Carboniferous Limestone has been exploited here for a very long time, as indicated by the dark grey colour of the rock faces in the middle distance, and the mature trees covering the heaps of spoil thrown down the hill towards the village.

Dulas valley
The Afon Dulas runs through the coastal hills in a deep gorge with cliffs in the Carboniferous Limestone outcrop on both sides. In the middle distance is Craig-y-forwyn Image and in the far distance can be seen Mynydd Marian Image, all summits on the limestone outcrop. It is notable in this view that there is a matching limestone plateau on both sides of the valley at this point.

Rampart, Pen-y-corddyn Mawr
Only the northern side of the hillfort is without a natural defence, so a neat pair of ramparts run east to west and define the hilltop stronghold. As there is very little soil up here, the ramparts are built of broken limestone heaped up and looking today very like the lower scree slopes.

Miniature forest
The scree, stones and limestone outcrop are covered in part with a low-growing mixture of Blackthorn and Cotoneaster. The large tree is a Yew.

Pen y Corddyn Mawr
I managed to drag the eleven others on Des's celebration walk up this P30 after dragging them through at least one hedge backwards.
