taken 3 years ago, near to Moel y Feidiog [hill or Mountain], Gwynedd, Great Britain

A stream near Defeidiog-uchaf
A stream near Defeidiog-uchaf
Unnamed on the map, but one of the sources of the Nant Ganol. 'Uchaf' means 'upper'. There is the nearby ruin of Defeidiog-ganol, with 'ganol' meaning 'middle'. There does not appear to be a Defeidiog-isaf (lower), but presumably there was at one time. Defeidiog possibly is derived from 'Defaid', meaning sheep, so maybe the meaning is 'Upper sheep place' and 'Middle sheep place'.
