Moel Dduallt on Fire

Six fire crews were out on the night of 9th April dealing with the fires on the foothills of Moelwyn Bach - thank you. Both sides of Moel Dduallt were ablaze with knee high bilberry. I hope the old oaks survive the scorching.

How did it start? I guess we'll never know, although there were rumours. Another rumour says a landowner was stopping fire tenders entering or leaving his land!

Dduallt means 'black hillside' and a few days after the fire it certainly looks like its name.
