Tywi Forest road on Esgair Ganol, Ceredigion

Uploader's Comments

The Tywi Forest is a very extensive area of coniferous plantation established in the 1960s over what had been, in the main, open moorland. Abandoned post-Medieval settlements and Bronze Age monuments reveal that this landscape was more intensively populated and used in the past. With many of the trees being well over forty years old, felling is in progress in many parts of the forest, including here, hence the good condition of many of the stony forestry roads.
