Clwb Cerdded

THE NEXT walk is scheduled for 14 November and is called Hafod and the Cavern Cascade. The Hafod estate is regarded by landscape historians as one of the finest examples of the picturesque, a pleasure ground where natural views of broken mossy terrain, cascading water and trees were enhanced and engineered by the owner, Thomas Johnes (1748-1816). Rocks were blasted, earth shifted, streams diverted and millions of trees planted.

As a result, Hafod became one of the most visited places in Wales, a haunt of writers, artists and poets. More recently, the Forestry Commission have wrought their magic. The walk is graded a grade B Moderate walk which should last approximately two hours and is over a distance of four miles and the meeting point is outside Y Talbot at 10am.

THE GROUP has had a busy summer. In May they held their centenary scroll event and invited Pennant and Llanon members to join in a visit to Rhiannon’s Gold Centre where Rhiannon demonstrated and explained the various stages of making the WI brooch, followed by refreshments by members in the Memo-rial Hall. They had two visits to local gardens in June and July and a very interesting talk with slides showing red squirrels in Ceredigion with Becky Hulme from the Squirrel Watch Scheme.

In September we were greatly entertained with a musical quiz devised by Jennifer and Tony Frost which had everyone laughing and enjoyed cheese and wine refreshments in celebration of the WI Centenary. Also in September we prepared window displays in Rhiannon’s and the Post Office showing some of the many crafts our members had made over the years.At short notice, Ian Tillotson gave a pictorial flavour of life, people, animals and birds of Papua, Indonesian New Guinea for the October meeting.

The AGM will be held on Wednesday, 11 November at 7pm.
