Great place to capture some photos of the River Taff. Scenic all year round

Each lock is crossed by a Bascule bridge, to carry pedestrians and vehicles across. These are lifted for boats to pass. The weight of the bridge deck is counterbalanced by an overhead weight on the opposite side of the pivot. Five sluice gates control the level of water in the Bay. Each sluice gate is 9 metres wide and 7.5 metres high. The sluices open to maintain the level of the Bay, and close when the estuary level is higher than the Bay to prevent seawater entering the freshwater lake.

Llandaff Cathedral is magnificent building nestled within the small community. There are also other historical buildings close by and it is worth a visit. Not from the city centre and the Taff Trail. Beautiful scenes in the autumn too as the leaves change colour.

This imposing building stands out from the relatively flat surroundings and harks to a by-gone era. Impressive stature!

Doable on a gravel bike in the dry. Foot down once Lol.

“Base” Good coffee/food stop.

The St Lythans burial chamber (Welsh: Siambr Gladdu Llwyneliddon) is a single stone megalithic dolmen, built around 4,000 BC as part of a chambered long barrow, during the mid Neolithic period, in what is now known as the Vale of Glamorgan. It lies about half a mile (1 km) to the west of the hamlet of St Lythans, near Dyffryn Gardens. The site is on pasture land, but pedestrian access is allowed and is free. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/St_Lythans_burial_chamber
