Well done Stan - didn't think it would be too difficult!    Z**

And it can be found in Canada and America.

Is this the one Yorkie
The Voortrekker Monument
Pretoria, Gauteng, South Africa
 The great grey colossus can be seen from all directions as you near Pretoria… the massive Voortrekker Monument, built in honour of the Voortrekkers who left the Cape Colony in their thousands between 1835 and 1854

Absolutely correct, once again!   I'll have to move on from SA.     Z**

Just to show you photos of cottages at Moel Y Don Yorkie and you can see Y Felinheli is across the Straits so

To be honest Yorkie there is not a lot to see in Moel Y Don,   Plas Coch holiday homes are nearby but apart from that you only see walkers and fishermen there.

Where and what is this?

Two clues:-
One walk I did ended up at this place
The building reminded me in a way about my night on 31st Dec 2010.
