The Monk s Trod, near Rhayader. CONCERNS have been raised during consultation about the proposed maintenance on the historic Monks Trod in the Cambrian Mountains, about the care that needs to be taken with the work. Before Christmas a Powys County Council public consultation was held about a draft environmental assessment, in relation to proposed work on the historic route, near Rhayader. The byway crosses the Cambrian Mountains between Pont ar Elan in Powys and the Strata Florida Abbey in Ceredigion and the council has been looking at ways to carry out work on the unsurfaced byway, which runs over naturally boggy and difficult ground.
