At the start of the second world war the war office urgently sought land on which military training exercises could be carries out. Their main requirement was a mile long stretch on which live ammunition could be fired. Mynydd Epynt and to its west Mynydd Bwlch- y – Groes, were selected and with short notice the small farming community were obliged to move.

Two hundred and nineteen farmers and their families were evicted from their homes. some families managed to find local accommodation, but others moved far away, and the community was destroyed.
