Mynydd Llangeinwyr
Mynydd Llangeinwyr is the highest hill in the county borough of Bridgend in the coalfield of South Wales. It forms a long north-south ridge between the valleys of Cwm Garw to the west and Cwm Ogwr Fawr to the east. The highest point of the ridge is the 568-metre flat dome known as Werfa which is crowned by a trig point and prominent masts. A secondary trig point is sited at a height of 530 m near to the ancient cairn of Carn-yr-hyrddod. The hill is named from the village of Llangeinor below its southern tip. == Geology == The hill is formed from Pennant Sandstone overlying a thick suite of South Wales Coal Measures rocks which have been heavily mined in the past. Many NW-SE aligned faults cut through the area. Numerous small landslips affect the steeper slopes of the hill.〔British Geological Survey 1:50,000 map sheet 248 ''Pontypridd'' & accompanying memoir〕
