NOT too far! I agreed that locals would find it easy - I knew it at a single glance.
We used to go that way on the Spring Into The Dales audax event but the route was then changed. Probably because there was a risky crossing of a fast downhill stretch of the busy A59.
The road further along is named Storiths Lane. I always assumed that the bit with the ford is too.

If I recall correctly, @Aravis is one of the few of us who has ridden in N Ireland. I wonder if that is the place to look? Certainly has the look of some of the mountains there but I'm no expert.

I would be interested to know where this is, but I can't promise to comment.Not where I thought it was
I can see the resemblance now that you mention it

You're actually pretty close.

Oh no. That means more time wasted faffing around on Google maps. Couldn't you just say "not even close"?

At last, six letters from Rembrandt Lily? Shaken, but not rare!

If it's a Welsh name an anagram isn't going to be much help! (DLT nimbly goes bananas!)

The traditional way to solve these is to study the pictures. Clues, which may assist some, are usually offered after a day or two.
I think the clue ought to be quite helpful, given the context. You might very well speculate, though I couldn't possibly comment, that the picture was taken on the same evening as my previous offering.
I can't solve yours, by the way

In which case I got yours wrong too
I was thinking it was an anagram of mbndtlily, i.e. rembrandtlily without r, a, r, e.

I think it is an anagram of the last six letters. Not rare because it is a saint's name and is not uncommon in Welsh place names. Or iit may be that it is running across a common at that point. Quite a lot of high ground in Wales is common land.

I've even found a road going by that name, which isn't all that far from where Dogtrousers thought - the other side of the hills he mentioned.
But I can't find anywhere on that road that looks right.
