Last clue      Does anyone remember anything about Bass Charrington?

I've already said that the well is in St Asaph Road but what is the name of the location that it's in?

At the junction just to the east of the Argos Centre on the old road that runs parallel to the A55 "behind" the expensive petrol station at Bodelwyddan!

WELL DONE  DVT                 &well&


It is on the corner as you have described and the Address is  St Asaph Road  Terfyn.        The old Bass Charrington depot was across the junction to it

That's a very good guess Spotty Dog and you're close, very very close but it's not correct.

You have seen it many times before but I'm looking for the name and address of this imposing building in N Wales       $walesflag$

Did someone with the Midas touch once live here?

Golden Lodge, St Asaph Road, Bodelwyddan, LL18 5SP

On the old A55 just along from your previous quiz pic!  Between the old and new A55's.

I'll give you that DVT as that's the house in the photo        &well&

The address is Golden Lodge
                      Terfyn
                      Abergele
                      LL22 9BY

It's a beautiful looking property and you can see the back of it on the A55 just before the petrol station

Thanks Hugo ... for bending the rules a little!

I worked out where it was, got the Lodge name by zooming in on the Google Maps pic, got the road name because that was on the map, and the post code I got by using Gridref finder, and that gave me the LL18 code.

Yet Google Maps goes to the same location when you key in the LL22 code that you quoted!

Must have been a lodge for Kinmel Hall originally.

No Guesses?     Perhaps a few more photos of this lake in the meadow field may help to identify its location?

Surface water from the meadow drains into the lake and then drains from the lake into the river which flows through the valley

Now where is it?                    $walesflag$

I think this may be on the outskirts of Ruthin and the properties are adjoining the River Clwyd.  The playing fields look like Ruthin Rugby club.

Well done Cambrian you are spot on again           &well&

I did give the name of the lake in a clue, albeit in English.   The lake is called Llyn Cae Ddol  ( Eng  Meadow field lake )        $walesflag$

First time I had been there and we were unable to do the walk we had planned as the Rugby ground had been flooded days before.    As you can see from the photo I don't think that anyone will be playing rugby on the field for a while
