A Special Place Marie Woods

A Memory of Gwytherin.

I visited the Gwytherin church and the Lion Inn in August 2007 and was upset to learn that the church is now deconsecrated. It seemed to us to be a very special place with the megaliths, the connection to St Winifride, the wonderful ancient yews. What is the future for this sacred spot - will it be sold to a developer? It seems to deserve a protected status. I am sure that many people would love to visit this village and spend time in the peaceful grounds. I don't have any connection to Wales, coming from New Zealand and am unlikely to ever return but I will always remember Gwytherin - and the coffee that the delightful proprietor of the inn shouted us!
