I think the parking place for the Precipice walk in Wales (https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/394294583) which also has a toilet and a picnic table would be considered a trailhead. There is also a nice sign https://xian.smugmug.com/Vacation/Wales-2018/i-hC7kWcK/A to tell you that you are at the right place to start the walk (http://dolgellau.wales/walks/precipice-walk.php)
But given that all the facilities and paths are mapped, I wonder which additional information "trailhead" brings in this case. m.
