Description
Description These two small meadows are an outstanding example of the once common herb-rich hay meadows of the eastern Welsh uplands. A number of uncommon plant species have been recorded from the site, including the greater butterfly orchid Platanthera chlorantha and the wood crane's-bill Geranium sylvaticum. This last species, very common in northern England, has only a few known Welsh stations. Remarks: Within the Brecon Beacons National Park.
