Me and a few friends used to go scuba diving here back in the 90's. Only 5 mtrs deep. good vis, but cold. There used to be a small fibreglass boat hull in there. Great to lay on the bottom at night and look up at the stars and moon. Very little light pollution.

I think it should be turned into a nature reserve park to protect it even more it’s just beautiful

Dear A Flying Scotsman
We are putting a video montage together to show the beauty and many uses of the canyon.
The person who is editing the video together advises that if we get written permission from every clip contributor, we can distribute it to a wider audience.
Would you mind giving your permission for us to use your drone footage please ?
thanks Hywel

Seen the video and it's very well done. There is no problem using any of my footage to benefit the cause and make people aware of this beautiful scenery and that it must be saved. Fingers crossed

Sadly an appeal has been launched and a Public Inquiry will begin on 15th January at Blaenavon Workmans Hall to determine its fate.....

[@VisorView]

I heard it has been blocked off completely now by the owner. I hope the appeal fails, but only a huge public objection will achieve that. :(

is that so they can store their stolen cars at the bottom x

That's right, the Tylwyth Teg are renowned for automobile theft.
