                 Baron Hill is a place I have heard  about but never visited and having seen the recent posts I about it I would like to do so. I know it's in the woods on the right of the road between Beaumaris and Pentraeth just as you leave Beaumaris and I think I know where it is from looking at Google Earth but is it readily accessible by footpath if so where is the best place to leave a car? Any tips and directions on a visit would be appreciated.

Re: Photography Banksy's vandalised
« Reply #856 on: October 21, 2014, 11:05:05 am »
A new mural by street artist Banksy in Bristol has been vandalised less than 24 hours after the work appeared.

Banksy's last work in the city was Mobile Lovers, which appeared in a doorway in Clement Street in April.
A row broke out over who owned it, with Bristol City Council arguing the work was on its land.
However, Banksy wrote to Broad Plain Boys' Club saying it was theirs and the club sold it to a private collector for £403,000

I don't understand Banksy, or Banks for that matter.

I know about him, I just don't get the appeal or why he does what he does and people go ape over it.

I think Banksy is a great guy, and him and his wife, (Ursula) were in my little shop only last year!

That looks more like Gordon Banks, the former England goalkeeper.

He's getting on a bit to be doing all that graffiti isn't he? Time to retire and let someone younger do it!  WWW
