Thank You Penygadair, ive been exploring the various paths in the Rhinogs for quite a while now, but until purchasing Tom Prevetts, "Roads and Trackways of North wales" i did not think about exploring the Bwlch Y Rhiwgyr side of the hills.
Last week i unwisely took my car way beyond Pont Fadog, and just managed to find a turn around spot, but it was touch and go.
The reason i did not want to walk this section, was because earlier, a large herd of cows with several small calves, became extremely agitated when i was walking down the hill towards Llety lloeger, you could tell by their attitude, that had they been a lot closer to me, then I do not know what would have happened.
I ran back to my car further up the road, and drove drown towards Pont Fadog.
The weather looks decent tomorrow, and if the cloud has lifted, i will follow the famous wall from a totally different side of the mountains.
I found my recently purchased Explorer map, dead exciting, as it has pinpointed several ancient reamains, that are not visible on the ground.
I will certainly have a look out for those Long Barrows, and as you have said, its very rare for them to be in this part of Wales.
Bryn Celli Ddu and Barclodiad Y Gawres on Anglesey, are round barrows, which are quite a bit different.
Fingers crossed for tomorrow, but if the weather is not that decent, there's always another day, and i am extremely fortunate, with Pont Fadog being just over two miles up the road from me.
Its not often i get excited about a walk, but i am anticipating something special along this walk, especially when there are so many ancient monuments to explore.
Thanks again
Dyffryn
