The Picturemakers - Soar y Mynydd
Capel Soar y Mynydd, a Welsh Calvinist Methodist chapel, was built by the River Camddwr in 1822 by Rev Ebenezer Richards of Tregaron and his trustees to serve the hill farmers of the remote upper valleys. It was also used as a school until the 1940s but the great and tragic snow storm of 1947 when the Tywi valley was cut off for three months and the sheep froze to death was the final blow to the last 7 families of sheep farmers in the valley who sold out in the end to the Forestry Commission.

A ground-breaking project will celebrate Flintshire's rich heritage - including the role the county played in Lord Nelson's most famous victories.
The copper sheeting which protected his ships at the battles of the Nile and Trafalgar came from Greenfield, near Holywell.
The £173,000 Flintshire Community Heritage Project is being masterminded by the rural development agency, Cadwyn Clwyd.
It's already claiming its first success with the formation of the Holywell and District Society in one of the county's most historic towns.
