Something to do with fishing, near the sea?

I think this is on the beach down at Morfa Nefyn, on the path that leads to the Ty Coch pub on the beach?

That's a nice walk Dave but you're on the wrong path.


At low tide you will spot the sad and rusting remains of a boat in a seaweed covered gully.

The winch is a guide to this point.

I'll have a guess with Anglesey! Perhaps somewhere around either Rhoscolyn?

On the Little Orme, I know that there is a larger version there belonging to the old quarry workings at the top of the very steep, man made slope.

           Is it on the Anglesey Coastal Path out on the headland on the route from Aberfraw round to St. Cwyfan's Church?

Gwynant is spot on again.        &well&


I looked for the boat but couldn't see it when I was there.

Dog Bark Park Inn

Cottonwood, Idaho

This beagle-shaped inn was built in 1997 by chainsaw artists Dennis Sullivan and Frances Conklin, who sold enough chainsaw wood carvings on QVC one year to invest in their pet(!) project. The main building, named Sweet Willy, is accompanied by a 12-foot-high wood carving of another beagle named Toby.

Let's try a harder one then.         $walesflag$
Three clues:-
It's in N Wales
The street was once the main road
Mrs Catherine Hughes was the shopkeeper          ???


Possibly Google proof.

Do you mean Llanbedr Y Cennin  Yorkie?    If so it's not there or any Llanbedr either.

The shop in the photo is near the school and also the Chapel

It's a good guess Jack and I can see the reason why you said Capel Garmon but it's not correct.      I'm sure that you must have been past it sometime, perhaps it's appearance has altered since the photo was taken.
