I tried to view this hillfort from both the A40 near Llansantffraed and from the minor roads south of Pennorth. Unfortunately there was nothing to be seen due to the trees. There is a public right of way up to the hillfort via Pennorth but when I 'visited' I didn't have time for a hike up the hill. Perhaps when I am next in the area?

Long and narrow hillfort overlooking the Usk Valley near Talybont, accessible by a public bridleway running through the centre of the fort.
