Ornate Iron Gate

This ornate gate was designed by Joe Roberts, one of the National Park Seasonal Wardens, as a tribute to Evan Roberts, who was appointed first Warden of Cwm Idwal in 1953. Dylan Parry was the blacksmith responsible for producing the tactile gate. The top part of the gate reflects the topography around Twll Du (Devils Kitchen) whilst the rails reflect the geology of the area and the reflection of the moraines in Llyn Idwal.
The Valley seen behind is known as the Nant Ffrancon Pass.
