Lucy Perchard climbed Garth Hill (Cwm Taf) on August 21st, 2017 [from/via/route] I was born in Pentyrch which is at the foot of this hill & have walked it too many times to mention! [with] Too many people to list here! [weather] All weathers - Great views over Cardiff & the Bristol Channel to the south & up to the Brecon Beacons to the North. It was the inspiration for "Ffynnon Garw", the fictional mountain (or hill) featured in the book, & later, film, "The Englishman Who Went Up a Hill But Came Down a Mountain" by Christopher Monger. Great film!
