Finding the summit

Surveyor's note

high point in fence 65m SE at SH 80580 31385 and ground near tree 35m SW at SH 80540 31430 are lower.

The recorded summit point is no feature: ground 65m NW of high point of fence. 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

Mynydd Bryn-llech is not counted as an independent hill in its own right. In prominence terms it belongs to Moel Llyfnant (751 m) — the nearest Marilyn you can reach from this summit without first dropping below its key col, 482 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.
