Castle Grogwynion

Hillfort

Fieldnotes

By far the easiest approach is from the north, we parked by some big black bagged hay roles half way down a farm track, and sneaked
the rest of the way.
High above the Afon Ystwyth (and I mean high) is the third of todays hillforts, it was the most beaten down of the three but it was in
the most exhilerating position, the view up and down the river is perfect. The entrance and a long bank arcing east-west enclosing the
hilltop between the long way down to the river and the easy way up are all thats
left. The best view of the hill fort is from the car as you approach.
A short thankyou to the capricous welsh weather is needed
as it was greyer than a greys grey spot, but no more than a
few spots of chilled sky water did touch our tender selves.
Thankyou Wales
