    Used to fish at Heniarth etc early sixties. River iced over and I lit a fire on it at Cafronnyd. Camping under bridge and the lady in the shop just down the road used to make us lovely apple pies!

    Sian Marsh Heniarth Corner
    Yes!!! cannot remember exactly, autumn 2001 Heniarth corner was only passable going towards Llanfair Caereinion. Usally the Banwy is content to flood just into the surrounding fields.

    More of a question than a comment. Has anyone any knowledge of flooding on the River Banwy over the last 50 years?
