Sorry Bri,  Porthmadog is too far south.     If you've done the walk you may have seen this wreck.       $walesflag$

                  That looks like the remains of the M.V. Hindlea just on the headland off Moelfre.

That's a very good guess Gwynant but it's not the Hindlea, although it is on Anglesey.       $walesflag$

No Bri,   I had never seen them before.   When I parked my car for the start of the walk I had a look over the wall and saw them.


It's very peaceful and quiet where the bench is but it can get noisy tuu!        ???

This building is facing the bench but you won't spot this window.     ???                    $walesflag$

                     Is overlooking the bay where St.Cwyfran's Church is on the little island near Aberfraw? That would explain the occasional noise as Trac Mon is right above it on the headland!

Gwynant, you've done it again.   Well done.   &well&

The bench is at the end of the lane from Aberffraw to St Cwyfan's Bay.    It's on the right hand side just before you go down to the beach.  It wasn't there last time I went so I thought that I'd take a photo of it

The window is on the opposite side of the Church so that'a why you wouldn't see it from the bench.

That track at Ty Groes was quite noisy yesterday and I think that only one car was doing the circuit

Spot on BrianP, well done.      $good$

It's set in a beautiful spot overlooking the Afon Dwyfor

I came across this unusual building today when I had a walk in N Wales,  but what is it and where is it?       $walesflag$
