More about this scene

Still travelling northward in 'the county of rivers', we see the River Wye lazily winding its way into the old spa town. Take care when looking for this place on a map: it is often marked by its Welsh name – 'Llanfair ym Mualt'.

Sparked a Memory for you?

My grandparents lived in Park Road, and as children myself and my sister used to go tiddler fishing under the suspension bridge. My sister's cat, Danny, used to follow us and join us in our endeavours. And my cat, Honey, got stuck up a tree. I remember being terrified crossing the suspension bridge as it swayed from side to side - better than any ride at Alton Towers!
