Neuadd Reservoirs (SO029190)
Managed by Welsh Water these reservoirs at the foot of the beacons are the first of a chain of reservoirs on the Taff Fechan river that enjoy wonderful views of Pen-y-Fan and Corn Du. The reservoirs are surrounded by access land with well defined upland paths. Disabled access is good with a well maintained road running from the parking area to the top reservoir. Recently Crossbill, Ring Ouzel and Great Grey Shrike have been recorded here and small numbers of wildfowl can be found on the reservoirs. Upland birds are typical with Peregrine, Kestrel, Red Kite and Buzzard all regular and summer visitors including Stonechat, Wheatear, Meadow Pipit and Skylark. Undoubtedly an under watched site that could yield much interest particularly during migration months.
