View across Cefni Estuary as described by Charles Tunnicliffe with overcast sky and high tide in estuary.

"No mountains were visible, and the rising tide made no perceptible movement as it crept into shallow gulley & little creek, turning the narrow river into a wide one, & gradually spreading beyond the river bank and over the flat sands in great shining areas"
