Where in North Wales will you find these steps?

First wild guess is St Dwynwen's on Llanddwyn Island but am not confident as I was there recently and didn't see the steps.

AMAZING!   :o

Well done Hugo. I thought that was a really hard one.
Mr Hollins says you are banned from future questions. He said you would get it.
We have to thank you Hugo for inspiring us to go on our walk there today after seeing your pics last week.
Will put some of ours on the walking thread.

That was a good photo Hollins and I wasn't certain about it at all.    What made me think of St Dwynwen's was because of the long low wall in the background and the undulating land behind the wall.       $good$
I'll look forward to seeing your photos on the walking thread as it is such a lovely place to visit, especially on a nice day.
Demi Moore stared in a film called Half Light and it was filmed in Anglesey with a lot of shots taken around the lighthouse

Thanks Steve,  a good try but it's not Conwy Castle.

It's a bit spooky so don't go there in the dark!

Poor Vic and Elizabeth,  no wonder this place is said to be haunted

The castle was built by Llewelyn the Great and the ruins are in 160 acres of parkland.  There are tales of a religious ghost and other spectres haunting the area and you can see this sculpture in the grounds too.
