Footpath alongside Caerphilly Road
There is a footpath - of sorts - alongside the northern edge of this section of Caerphilly Road, between Lower Machen and Machen-fach Farm.
The concrete base has been invaded by grass in patches, and puddles have nowhere to drain away. There will be little evaporation on this wintry April 1st 2010.

Dobermans on guard, Maendy-fach
The 'welcome' written in red on the notice at the entrance to Maendy-fach did nothing to change my plan of keeping on the main country route, and leaving exploration of side routes for another time.
