Remarks on position &c. 



In garden sloping from the house 

 towards the S., perfectly open 

 from E.S.E. to W.S.W., and 

 fairly so from other points. 



In field about one mile E. of Llan- 

 gurig Church ; very good po- 

 sition. 



Gauge recently removed here from 

 Broomcliff. Its future position 

 will be on flat ground at the 

 bottom of a rather narrow val- 

 ley. 

 Gauge could not be found in the ab- 

 seuce of tbe observer, who failed to 

 meet me. The ground is, however, 

 level table land well suited for a gauge, 

 and aa it and the four followint; gauges 

 were all made together, I have no 

 doubt it ie correct. 

 In field near Carno railway sta- 

 tion ; good position.

On summit of hill above Garth- 

 bibio. It is stuck in a bank, 

 giving it rather an extreme ex- 

 posure for so elevated a station. 



On the flat top of a moor above 

 Ennant, 4 miles W.N.W. of 

 Llanwddyn, and ^ mile N. of Y. 

 Gadfa. 



In field a few hundred yards E. Ajr, 

 from Llanwddyn church, quite 

 open. Doubt if observer is al- 

 ways reliable. 



Previoiisly examined in 1862(see No. 27). 

 Gauge in same position and carefully 

 attended to. Owing to the absence of 

 Ordnance bench-marks, the altitudes 

 in this neighbourhood are still uncer- 

 tain. 



Good position at junction of roads 

 north end of village. 



Very sheltered position, observer 

 agreed to move it to a more 

 suitable one.
