Best View In Wales...

A Memory of Beaumaris.

This picture stirs a memory. Years ago, my wife & myself would stay at my brother in laws at the nearby village of Llangoed. In the evenings Neil & I would walk for miles around the coastal & footpaths between Beaumaris & Puffin Island. Every now & then he would be excited by another path or view he had found, & this is one of them. 'Best view in Wales' he'd say, that is until he'd found another one. Looks much the same nowadays.

He would regale me with tales of the legends of Wales, ancient kingdoms & warriors.

Sometimes I would suprise him with my knowledge. One day we were walking a couple of miles north of where this picture was taken, on the way to Penmon. It was a very low tide, & we noticed what appeared to be a very small island. Did some research, it turned out to be the wreck of a dredger, The Hoveringham 11, which was holed & capsized in 1971.
