Chris Ripper - Amphitheatre Buttress |
A few photographs from
‘Amphitheatre Buttress’. In Greek and Roman architecture an
amphitheatre is a large, open-air venue,
which usually has a central area for the presentation of dramatic sporting events.
The alpinesque ridge of
‘Amphitheatre Buttress’, however, is a natural amphitheatre that was
most probably carved in the last ice age. ‘Amphitheatre Buttress’ is certainly
an open-air venue that has the possibility for some dramatic sporting events. The
buttress stands at the head of Cwm Eigiau and is adjacent to the striking
‘
Craig yr Ysfa’.
