Grwyne Fawr Reservoir 019

The dam and reservoir at Grwyne Fawr in the mountains north west of Abergavenny. The remains of the bridge that carried the rail link from the main line (left) up the hillside to a parallel line that led to the top of the dam. Most of the once 12 mile line from Llanvihangel is now a road. The reservoir was decommissioned around 2014, with no more water required to run through the pipe to Abertillery, but it does not seem to have increased the volume of water in the stream.
