During a recent family walk on the Blorenge, a summit overlooking Abergavenny, we were favoured by warm, sunny weather with a light breeze. Visibility was quite good too and shortly after we set off on our walk through the heather and bilberry we stopped to look at the distant Pen y Fan (886 metres, 2907 feet), the high point of the Brecon Beacons. In the photograph it is the rightmost of the two sloping peaks on the central horizon, the lower summit being Corn Du (873m). In the foreground of the photograph is an old farm surrounded by small fields edged with tumbledown dry stone walls.
