Quote from: Hugo on February 06, 2015, 03:53:15 pmI knew that you would get it Gwynant although I did crop the first photo of the Chapel as it showed Port Dinllaen and that would have given the game away. Clues Cymraeg do help sometimes! It's over 40 years since I walked down and back up there and the village was just in ruins. They have really done an excellent job and there is still a lot of work going on there at the moment.The place was called Port Nant at one time and boats from Liverpool and other ports used to call there for the granite.I had that book also but lost it a long time ago. I think that it was a booklet called The Captain's Guide to hidden haunts and I tried to visit as many as I could and did most of them.We too walked down and back probably about the same time, found it in a book called Hidden Haunts which I still have, be it very dog eared. Our daughter thought we were trying to kill her, the hill is very steep !

Me thinks I've seen that before! ZXZ
