Fforest Fawr - Extent

Extent

The area extends from the edge of the Black Mountain in the west eastwards to the A470 Brecon to Merthyr Tydfil road, just west of the Brecon Beacons themselves. It includes the peaks of Fan Fawr (734m), Fan Frynych (629m), Craig Cerrig-gleisiad (629m), Fan Llia (632m), Fan Nedd (663m), Fan Gyhirych (725m), Fan Bwlch Chwyth (603m) and Cefn Cul (562m). Traditionally Fforest Fawr also included the peaks of Fan Hir and Fan Brycheiniog though the modern recreational use of the name tends to be restricted to east of the Black Mountain of which they form a part.

Famous quotes containing the word extent:

    “If the worker and his boss enjoy the same television program and visit the same resort places, if the typist is as attractively made up as the daughter of her employer, if the Negro owns a Cadillac, if they all read the same newspaper, then this assimilation indicates not the disappearance of classes, but the extent to which the needs and satisfactions that serve the preservation of the Establishment are shared by the underlying population.”
    —Herbert Marcuse (1898–1979)

    “He who receives an injury is to some extent an accomplice of the wrong-doer.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “The awareness that health is dependent upon habits that we control makes us the first generation in history that to a large extent determines its own destiny.”
    —Jimmy Carter (James Earl Carter, Jr.)
