Dist:0.2km<br/>This trig pillar is right next to a rutted trail across the mountain. This is the view east towards Clydach below. If you look carefully, you can see the chimney from the Inco nickel refinery popping up above the bushes just a little to the right of the pillar top. Swansea, Port Talbot and much of the Swansea valley are also visible from this hill.

Dist:1.3km east<br/>This river has quite an industrial past with a tramway and many mines along its length. Barely anything remains now but there is a clogged leat and defunct sluices behind the pictured weir, plus the name of this area hints at an old forge.

Dist:1.3km northeast<br/>This is the view southeast down the river. Although it is now a nature reserve and quite overgrown, there are numerous small signs of mining industry here: building foundations, buried steel ropes and the stone walled artificial bank of the river, visible on the curve in the distance.
