May 7: Mynyddislwyn and Twyn Tudor

A long-overdue return to an old haunt. The hillside church of St Tudor at Mynyddislwyn overlooks the town where my sister lives, and I hadn't been back here since the early 1990s. This has been a site of worship since the early days of Celtic Christianity. South of the church is a superb row of ancient yew trees.

Further south lies Twyn Tudor, a prehistoric mound of uncertain age and purpose. As often before, I found this a pleasant spot to retire and ponder the ways of the world.
