Title: Porth Ysgo Journey
Post by: gruff on November 08, 2004, 12:59:11 am
If I'm right, the journey to Porth Ysgo might be cut by a bit, after a decision that's been made.

news item (http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/wales/north_west/3987163.stm)

Dunno whether it's good or bad really. Shame it could come at the cost of some national trust woodland tho.

I'm not sure either- it sure is beautiful down there.... I can see why it would be a huge bonus for the locals though, it's a huge drag going inland to Rhiw and the other side of the road closure to Porth Neigwl, but it is a nice big (for a B) road down to Aberdaron.

Which reminds me: is there any climbing on the 'fort' by Rhiw radar station?

Sorry lads, I know nothing of any potential on said hill fort thingy. I would imagine that Higg, or Jon Ratcliffe have checked it out though.

I did wonder when the road was going to get sorted out, traffic has been diverted for years. I won't comment on the ethics of it all until I know more (not that anyone would give a shit if I thought it was a good or bad idea. :( )

Funny innit, it looks boss from the road- a bit like Apparent North at Stanage.... Ah well.

I quite like the fact it takes ages to drive anywhere down there-do we all have to be rushing about like mad f*ckers? But then I suppose if you live there and are late for workit's a bit different.
