Comments: Broneirion is a relay of Blaenplwyf (via Llangurig Link, Long Mountain and Llandinam)
   
 

Broneirion is off the A470 between Caersws and Llanidloes on a ridge above the River Severn. It is an analogue relay of Blaenplwyf.

Most of Llandinam village can't see Llandinam relay, so Broneirion relays Llandinam serves Llandinam itself!

Confused... ?

 

Above: The RBL aerial. There's no doubt that Broneirion is a relay off Llandinam

Below: evidence that Broneirion started life as a 17m wooden pole.

Above: view of Llandinam relay and village from Broneirion. The northern part of the village is totally shielded from Llandinam relay: part of the centre of the village can see llansdinam relay through this gap, picturesquely called 'Cobblers Gate'

Below: our stitched images giving about a 150° view of the village and Severn valley. Can you see the join?
