In Tir, writer-ecologist Carwyn Graves takes us on a tour of seven key elements of the Welsh landscape, such as the 'ffridd', or mountain pasture, and the 'rhos', or wild moorland. By diving deep into the history and ecology of each of these landscapes, we discover that Wales, in all its beautiful variety, is at base just as much a human cultural creation as a natural phenomenon.
