Petrosedum rupestre (L.) P V Heath (Sedum rupestre L.) or Rock Stonecrop, Briweg Felen, isn't thought to be a native in the British Isles these days but J A Webb commented in a draft for a Flora of the county* that Rock Stonecrop was “almost certainly native and abundant on rocks 40’ high in the Duhonw Glen at Aberduhonw” where A E Wade had first recorded the plant in 1921. (This site is probably Duhonw Rocks SO0348, where it was found by Mike Porter in 1970 and Brecknock Botany Group two days ago.)
The rocks near Llandewi'r Cwm where we spotted the plant.
