More about this scene
The Welsh slate industry developed in the heart of the mountains, and this resulted in settlements in some very bleak and exposed places. The hamlet of Tanygrisiau is situated on treeless, rocky slopes; at this time it provided accomodation for workers in the nearby Ffestiniog slate mines. The tall slate tips and some mine buildings are just visible on the right beyond the crag.
