Pen y Bryn (The Bandstand)

Pen y Bryn is a prominent hill in the centre of Aberdyfi, is claimed to be the site of a 12th century earthwork fortification, and historically was used as a lookout for families of returning seafarers.
The current observation structure is locally known as The Bandstand and provides splendid views over Aberdyfi and the estuary.
