Finding the summit

Surveyor's note

summit is 17cm higher than top 75m SE at SJ 08636 40871.

The recorded summit point is no feature: heather. That distinction matters on broad or flat tops, where the obvious cairn is not always the true high point.

Which hill this one belongs to

Bryn-llus is not counted as an independent hill in its own right. In prominence terms it belongs to Cadair Berwyn (832 m) — the nearest Marilyn you can reach from this summit without first dropping below its key col, 516 m.

Grouping is by prominence alone: a summit belongs to the nearest higher Marilyn it connects to without a deeper intervening col. Over a large massif that can gather hills no one would walk in a single day, and which few would describe as parts of the same mountain — it is a measure of independence, not a suggested route.
