The Llia, Breconshire

Historical Description

Llia, The, a mountain rivulet in the S of Brecknockshire. It rises among the mountains of Fforest Fawr, runs about 7 miles southward to the Neath, takes down a road from Brecon to Neath, and is accompanied along its middle and lower portions by the Sarn Helen Way. A stone called Maen Lliais near its head, on the summit of the road-pass through the mountains, measures 12 feet by 9, and is visible for long distances on both sides of the pass.
