That was very crafty Steve,  you're a whizz kid on IT so I'll have to think more carefully next time

Anyway back to the whereabouts of the bargain buy at just £26,750.00 if you find it you might like to buy this old shack to go with it

The garage isn't a repeat Steve, it's brand new, unlike the one in the photo which has seen better days.

I'll direct you to it, so go down the busy road, turn left over the bridge and it's about 200 yards away on the left in a hollow.          $walesflag$

There is a name on the garage that is bilingual and it could be translated like this:-        Hollow Grove              $welsh$
                                                                                                                                Ty  Modur

Many walkers pass this place including other forum members and you can't help but see it as it's right on the roadside

You are on the right lines Robbie and spot on so well done.          &well&

If you leave the A470 to go over the bridge to Pont Y Pant Railway Station you will pass this garage on your left.      Above the Garage door is the name  Gelli Pant   Motor House and what is up for sale is the garage and a plot of land that you could just about park a caravan on.
It was on sale for £38,500.00 but that has been reduced to £26,750.00      No wonder it's still on sale at that price, so when I walked past it I thought that I'd take a photo of it.

Steve, do you fancy buying a garage at a bargain price?         :o

You were right about the shack as it was in a previous quiz but the garage wasn't a repeat.    I knew that if I posted another photo of the shack you would have got the answer correct like you did before

Well done Spotty Dog.         &well&

It's in Bull Bay and very near the old Bull Bay Hotel.     Was that a good guess or did you know it?

I was in Anglesey today and it's just as well as I wouldn't be able to go there after the lockdown on Thursday
