With: solo; Nuttalls walk 7.5. Good dry day with light wind and high cloudIan Baines09/10/2022
Updated Nuttall 7.5 from Bwlch yr Hwch: Foel Goch, Trum y Gwragedd (Trum y Gwrgedd), Foel y Geifr, Pen y Cerrig Duon, Pen y Boncyn Trefeilw, Stac Rhos, Cefn Gwyntog North Top, Cefn Gwyntog, Cefn Gwyntog Far North Top, Foel Cedig and Y Groes Fagl. Haxy, dull day, so there weren't even good views to distract from the relentless trudge through heather.Lazylizzie03/09/2022

Rain, rain, rain! A walk out along the track, picking off tops on the way out and back. With B and R.jenx17/12/2020
The 7 listed high points from the head of Cwm Hirnant to Cyrniau Nod with Rufus. Parked at the top of the pass and used the vehicle track with brief heathery diversions to the high points. Returned along the track, 3 hours.jacobrichmond07/09/2020
Did the Nuttall's route in 2018 and a couple of weeks later Foel Cedig replaced Cyrniau Nod and a Bridge summit was added! Went to Cefn Gwyntog Far North Top first as couldn't be sure whether I passed over it the previous year. Then onto Foel Cedig which was in cloud by the time i got there. 6.7 miles in an hour and 43.Herbert Anchovy28/07/2019

After recompleting Nuttalls on Foel Cedig. I must have crossed this top en route to Cefn Gwyntog in 2016. Summits don't come much more nondescript than this one!Crib Goch03/05/2019

Made a special visit. I thought I had completed the Welsh Bridges but then this one appeared. Parked at 94623 27300 at the end of the track which went, somewhat circuitously almost to the summit. Low cloud and gusty wind so no views. 5.59m 1h38 mins.clivevilla07/01/2019
After a Cedig group visit, bemused by the xN North Top, we noticed the DoBIH comment ref the Bridge top - this seemed the more obvious candidate than its lower less prominent southern neighbourRHW24/11/2018
