Hi Robin,

I'm never really sure exactly were it is, but I'd be happy to do some screenies if I can get coordinates. xsmile

Hi Ben,

It starts roughly at 52.722022, -3.699021 it follows the road down West until open ground and then goes round to the left into Cad again following the road off to the left, just as you go down the valley towards the lake there is a sharp left, there you go.

Let me know how you get on.

Cheers!

Hi Robin... righty, got a few shots just west of the Village of Bwlch, but I'm getting confused. There is a reservior a few clicks SSW of Talybont-on-usk... Is that the one in the bottom left of your map?

Nope that one is Llyn Tywyn, and the Valley runs to the south. Taly-bont on Usk is in the Beacons?

Is it easier to search by place names or grid ref's? (BTW The Bwlch is just the name of the valley at that point. Not actually a village.)

Hi Robin,

If you can give me some coordinates of the area in Degrees / Minutes / Seconds I should be able to find it without problem. xwink

No just coordinates of one of the points in degrees minutes seconds, as I think my conversion from decimal is going wrong somewhere :$
