Bricked Up Gateway
The Vyrnwy Aqueduct pipelines runs below here. Above the archway is the old trackbed of the long dismantled Tanat Valley Light Railway built in 1904. It was a condition of the line's construction that this access culvert be built under the railway to facilitate repairs to the existing pipeline & also enable the laying of the planned additional pipeline within a few years. Thanks to John Robertson for this information

Penybontfawr Church
This church is dedicated to St Thomas and dates from 1855. A notice on the gate announced 'Good news: the Bishop has given his permission for us to restart our services with effect from the start of September'. It would appear that regular services had been suspended in several churches in the area at the beginning of the year because of their small congregations. Evidently this church has been given a reprieve at least for the time being.
