Next Sunday, 26th Sep, there’s a field trip to Aberthaw, W of Barry & Rhoose. We’ll have a wander round the area known as The Leys, west of the power station, then walk around the walkway that fronts the buildings, to East Aberthaw, to explore the area around the pool there. If anyone is interested we could visit Rhoose afterwards to have a wander round the pools there. We start at West Aberthaw/Gileston as the parking for E Aberthaw is very limited, unless you use the carpark of the Blue Anchor pub but that is a very popular venue at the moment. Below is a map showing the access to W Aberthaw beach car park. Basically, travelling W on the B4265 you turn left at the St Athan crossroads, signposted Gileston, making sure you do a right at the minor T junction. Take care when entering the parking area – it is pretty bumpy [rocky] and pot-holed. I suggest meeting there at 9:30 a.m. Please email me to book a place – johndw1948 at gmail dot com.
