Finding the summit

Surveyor's note

rock supporting cairn 100m NW at SN 84780 23115 (N top) is 7cm lower; summit of SW top 100m away at SN 84774 23004 is 0.6m lower.

The recorded summit point is a single stone: ground within SE 590m ring contour. 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

Moel Feity is not counted as an independent hill in its own right. In prominence terms it belongs to Fan Brycheiniog - Twr y Fan Foel (803 m) — the nearest Marilyn you can reach from this summit without first dropping below its key col, 512 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.
