Description
This trackway runs north to south up the west facing slope of Mynydd y Cemmaes. It is shown on the Llanerfyl sheet of the Ordnance Survey Original Surveyors Drawing of 1832, and on later 19th and 20th century Ordnance Survey maps. It originates in the south from the cottages and farmsteads to the east of Cemmaes, and traced during Upland Survey in 2014 from SH8643106268 to SH8691008090 a distance of nearly 2 kilometres. North of this the trackway has been largely destroyed by tracks for the Mynydd y Cemmaes windfarm, but originally gave access to the broad summit ridge of Mynydd y Cemmaes. J.J.
