Overgrown tramways This seems to have been some kind of processing area for the old Pwll Bach or Betting collieries. Only these crossing and looping tracks on a concrete surface remain. The tracks are on three different height levels. The land has now been returned to farm use (as can be seen from the cattle feeders in the distance) and is slowly being covered with mulch and grass. Directly along the line of the tracks in the photo, at the first hedge, is where I'm guessing the tunnel to Ystalyfera emerged but alas there is no sign of it now.

Confluence of Twrch and Llynfell Three counties meet here. This shot is taken from the footbridge over the Llynfell which flows in from the bottom, dividing Carmarthenshire from Neath-Port Talbot. The Twrch flows left to right separating them both from Powys.
Lonesome Lamp Post and Tree The strange thing in this picture is the lamp post - now out in the middle of nowhere! Although maps show a road for it to illuminate, it takes imagination to visualise the road today. The road was abandoned many years ago when an open cast mine opened nearby. For many years its sole purpose was to be the access road for a nearby farm - now engulfed by the mine. The gravel track road was slowly taken over by nature, and the single lamp post was left to decay. In late 2009 the public footpath past this lamppost was closed and a wider perimeter fence erected, enlarging the area occupied by the open cast mine. It looks like this location will soon be lost.
