A steep and slippery slope down to this beautiful spot. Over the fence that warns of steep drops.
Lens flare, Nant Y Ffrith waterfall. Tranquil spot and peacefully perfect.
Ruined Cottage in Nant y Ffrith Woodland The remains of an ancient stone cottage alongside the footpath through Nant y Ffrith Woodland. Some of the invading trees have been cut back, but that seems to have had little effect. In time the ruin will probably be completely absorbed into the forest. See also 338174
