Dist:0.1km<br/>These two facilities are by the forecourt of [[1176201]]; the postbox is emptied finally at 4:30pm on weekdays and at 9:30am on Saturdays. Far right, we see the wall of [[1176211]].

Dist:0.2km<br/>A small church standing alongside [[1176201]], seen to the right. According to the stone above the door, the church was built in 18-fiftysomething; alas I neither can recall nor made a note of the exact date!

Dist:0.2km<br/>A facility that the village is lucky still to have. I was pleased to be able to buy a snack and also use the post office as a cashpoint, though the price of fuel did not tempt me and I filled up a few miles farther on.

Dist:0.9km<br/>The cows started mooing rather alarmingly - I suspect it was because many of them had calves with them

Dist:1.0km<br/>This junction with the main road is the entrance to Bedw-Hirion farm. It was also used during the construction of Alltwalis windfarm. The various pages posted on the wagon voice many complaints, a couple of which are the constructors' failure to preserve trees as promised and the staggering achievement of introducing Japanese Knotweed to this upland area while constructing the metal and concrete turbines.

Dist:1.4km northeast<br/>This public house stands at a road junction between the A485 and an unclassified road going southeast to Brechfa and northwest to Llanfihangel-ar-Ardd. The chapel that is partly visible on the right is nearly 200 years old and still used by parishioners.

Dist:1.7km southeast<br/>Yn y llecyn bu tri thyddyn - Ffarm y Tower, Ffarm Highgate a Bwthyn Highgate. Bellach, ychydig o waliau mwsoglyd a oroesir. Mae'r hewl yn arwain i fyny at Fynydd Rhos-wen a lle bu arhosfa ceir planhigfa! In the not too distant past three properties were located at this location- Tower Farm, Highgate Farm and Highgate Cottage. Today, only moss covered walls remain. The road in the foreground leads up to the former moorland of Mynydd Rhos Wen Mountain; the area is now a vast conifer plantation!
