Mynydd-y-glog
Mynydd-y-glog is a hill just east of the village of Penderyn in the northern corner of the county borough of Rhondda Cynon Taff in south Wales. It lies within the Brecon Beacons National Park and Fforest Fawr Geopark. Its summit plateau rises to a height of 389m / 1277 ft at OS grid ref SN 982088, a spot marked by a trig point. To its north lies the partly dry valley of Pant Sychbant which forms the eastern extension of Cwm Cadlan. Its southern slopes are drained by various streams which feed into the Afon Cynon.〔Ordnance Survey Explorer map OL12 'Brecon Beacons National Park: western area'〕
==Geology==
The hill is composed of a layer cake of rocks laid down during the Carboniferous period. Lowermost, and exposed along its shallow northern scarp, are Carboniferous Limestones whilst above these is the coarse Twrch Sandstone (formerly the 'Basal Grit') of the Marros Group (former 'Millstone Grit Series') also dating from the Carboniferous period. A number of northwest to southeast aligned faults runs across the hill. The limestone gives rise to karstic scenery including numerous shakeholes. These occur on the gritstone area as well as the limestone.〔British Geological Survey 1:50,000 map sheet 231 'Merthyr Tydfil' & accompanying memoir〕
