Cattle on improved farmland near the summit of Moel Llys-y-coed with unimproved upland heather moorland in foreground.


Cattle on improved farmland near the summit of Moel Llys-y-coed. The fence and neglected drystone wall mark the boundary between the upland heather moorland of Moel Famau Country Park and private improved grazing. Shows the distinct difference between improved grass pasture and the upland heather moorland habitiat that is being conserved within the Moel Famau Park. The Offa's Dkye Path runs up the hill between the heather and fence/wall.
