Toward the north-western flank of Great Rhos ascending the southern headwall of Cwm Merwys – in retrospect.... I’d suggest members wishing to base a circular visit upon Cwm Farm may wish to consider this path for the descent... since the way down from the pair of barrows at the terminus of the northern flank of Cwm Bach (seen left background) is ludicrously steep and arguably better tackled early on! Incidentally, thanks to TSC for prompting a return to Great Rhos after 24 years via a different route.

You're very welcome, these are nicely situated aren't they? Aside from the obvious height differential and the lack of chalk, Cwm Bach reminded me of Wiltshire.
I get the Wilshire reference. I'd say the Radnor hills are pretty unique in Wales... elements of other ranges, but nevertheless unique. Similar terrain yet more irregular than The Black Mountains, not as brutal as Cwmdeuddwr Hills or The Arans.. perhaps most like the western Berwyn (Hirnants?)
