Very interesting re Crogfryn ME.

Just a couple of things, mains water came to Llanrhos in 1879 when the Llandudno supply from Dulyn arrived.

Beyond the well nearer the old Tower is a field known as Gardd y Mynachdy,  which can be translated as the Monastry Garden.  It is assumed to be a link to the old Aberconwy Abbey.

Nice one ME   It's a few years since I saw it last but the guy who rediscovered it in his garden did a good job looking after it

A very easy one and apologies if it has been shown before.

Where would you see this in the Three Towns?

Don't know the name of the road but it can be viewed from the High Street from the Castle Hotel Conwy

That's the one Robbie, well done

I noticed it today when we went to Conwy for the open door day at Plas Mawr and the Castle.

I shall have look for that later, Hugo, as we are booked onto the 3pm tour of Plas Mawr.

It's at the back of the small car park opposite the Castle Hotel and is a very attractive bit of work.  Hope that you enjoy your trip around Plas Mawr Bri

It sounds as if when one exits the front door of the Castle Hotel, Hugo, then it is immediately in front of you.

In that case its front door is probably in Llewelyn Street.

That's the one Bri and here's a photo that hasn't been cropped  ( can't make them too easy!  )       ;D

We didn't realise that you could book tickets beforehand so Plas Mawr was fully booked up and there were hundreds of people waiting to go in to the castle so we just had a walk around the town but we did manage one of Edwards' sausage rolls and Parisella's ice creams before heading back home

Sorry Hugo, Mrs H. is into dance in various studio's in the area, so guess who I asked..............

Excellent bit of graffiti...  ;)

So well done Mrs H and well done Steve.

It's an excellent bit of graffiti like you say and just along the wall is another work of art with the Lion which was going to be my next clue

By the way the litter in the alley is not from the dance class

A very wild guess at St Trillo's Chapel Rhos on Sea
