Orphan date November 2006 Unreferenced date April 2008 Villabandin is a small hamlet place hamlet , part of 15 or so that lead approximately 100 kilometers North West from the city of Le n, Spain Le n towards Villablino in Castile Leon in north eastern Spain . It is made up of two parts with less than five residents living in one while the major part of the hamlet has a collection of houses, barn s, a Church building church , a Bar establishment bar which remains shut for most of the year , and a dance hall that are cut through by a river with two bridges on opposing sides. The hamlet lies between two valleys at an altitude of over 1,000 metres above sea level . The population is thought to be less than 10 people, all over the age of 65. History The area where the hamlet lies is believed to have been invaded by the Moors . At the beginning of the twentieth century, fire caused destruction of much of the hamlet and it was renovated in 1902. Up until the 1980s it was inhabited by poor farmers who worked in the surrounding valleys herding sheep and cattle making a living from the land. Climate, Geography and Wildlife The climate is characterized by warm, sun filled summers contrasting with cold, often snow filled winters. During the winter months most of the elderly inhabitants actually leave to be looked after by next of kin . The surrounding countryside is mainly inhabited by Spanish Broom Spartium junceum , their yellow flowers providing swathes of colour over the landscape during the spring months. The surrounding picturesque area has a mountainous topology and is home to the Alto de la Ca ada , which is its highest peak at 2154m above sea level. At these higher altitudes Common Heather Calluna vulgaris is the dominant vegetation and the extreme isolation and remoteness is an ideal habitat for the Chamois Rupicapra rupicapra and birds such as the Red billed Chough Pyrrhocorax pyrrhocorax and Cinereous Vulture Aegypius monachus .
