Overlooking Abergavenny
From the minor road between Blorenge and Gilwern Hill at Pwll-du looking north-east. The whole town is in view and beyond it the distinctive ridge of The Skirrid (Ysgyryd Fawr). Just to the left of the town is the dome-shaped ridge of Twyn-yr-allt, which leads up to the Sugar Loaf, which is just out of shot on the left. Below is the Usk valley.

An entrance to the former Coleg Gwent The Hill campus
Viewed from Pen-y-pound. The Hill Education and Conference Centre was sold by Coleg Gwennt in 2009. A purchaser had planned to set up a ballet school here, but the plan was abandoned in 2011.
A group named CASH (Community Action to Save The Hill) has been set up with the aim of securing a sympathetic buyer for the site, especially one who would ensure its continuance as an educational site.
