The Hepste, Breconshire

Historical Description

Hepste, The, a rivulet of Brecknockshire, rising on the S side of the Brecknock Beacons, and running about 9 miles south-south-westward to the Mellte, 3 miles S of Ystradfelte. It makes a fall of 50 feet over a ledge of rock, with so unbroken a leap as to leave a path underneath, and further down it makes a series of falls. Near its mouth also, on the Mellte, are other falls.
