About Godor

Godor is one of the tops of Cadair Berwyn, reached along a boggy ridge running south from that mountain's summit; it is the last high point on that ridge. Tomle and Godor North Top lie on the same line of hills.

The summit itself is grassy and carries only a small cairn. It is listed as a Nuttall.

Which hill this one belongs to

Godor 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, 654 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.
