Trees around the anti-pipeline tree camp in Penpont have been chopped down in recent days and heavy machinery has been brought in to enable work on the pipeline to start in the area. However, the anti-pipeline camp has still not been evicted. More people are urgently needed to take part in the growing resistance to the pipeline, which is causing huge destruction to the environment and poses serious safety risks.

DIRECTIONS to Penpont tree camp:

The protest camp is in ancient woodland at Penpont, 4 miles west of Brecon on the A40 close to Bettws Penpont church. It is located at Ordnance Survey national grid reference SN9728728525. There is a bus going from Cardiff coach station to Brecon town (X43, takes aprox 1hr, costs around £4). From the bus stop you get off at in Brecon town (the only bus stop there) there is another bus that goes right past the camp (£1.60, aprox 10 mins- ask driver for tree camp, you will probably see banners on the left).
