Now this photo of the main house must help and I'm sure that I saw the sign for Hollywood near the gates.     $walesflag$

I'm sure that Steve has been beavering away at this one and thought that Gwynant would also have got this too as they have both passed very close to the gates,

Every time you post a photo it looks less familiar!
Where's the experts?

    I thought the woods behind the house resembled the area around Betws-y-Coed and with the "beavering " clue I looked on Google Earth and found Coed-y-Celyn on the A470 just after the Dolwyddelan turnoff and by the Beaver Pool.

Clues Cymraeg  have done it again!   Well done Gwynant      $good$


I only noticed it myself last Saturday when we had to walk on the A470 from Beavers Bridge to the lay by near the Ty Gwyn Hotel.
The clues again:-
A road           =     A470
Hollywood      =     Coed Y Celyn          $walesflag$
Chapel (prayer house)  in the trees    =    Betws Y Coed        $walesflag$

Another easy one for Sunday.]   Where are these nice gates in N Wales and a bonus point for the name of the property.         

H. I draw your attention to your opening remarks, I am beginning to dread reading ...... heres another easy one.....

Yet again another good quiz, I got all your clues but the translation for Hollywood didnt show up, so around in circles again.
Well done and thankyou Gwynant...  $good$

Hi Steve,  I felt certain that it would be too easy for you with you having lived nearby for so long and that's why I cropped the top of the photos initially.
I drop some clues Cymraeg in from time to time but when I do I'll always put a   $walesflag$  there.
Coed  =  wood
Y         = the
Celyn   = holly

It's a great big building but when you drive past all you can see is the tower but that would have been a give away

Now I've got an easy one lined up for you .....    ;D

Have you been sampling the Cheshire life again Hollins?     Those two spires look like the ones on Chester Cathedral      ?{}?
