Other architecture (( (not castles ) hlloxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Coming onto Anglesey over the Menai Bridge. (For more Menai pictures, go to the Menai page. ) To the west, there is another, more modern bridge, the Brittania, which was also somewhat of an engineering marvel in its day..



Below: Coming off the bridge into the town of Menai Bridge.
Approaching Beaumaris. Between these two towns is our "corniche." We've tried for a little video from that but will need some technical help before I can get you on it.

The Priory at Penmon. All very ancient. There are some 13th century artifacts inside.


A house on the way to Pentraeth that we had noticed the week before. Talking in the front yard of Linda Clare's farmhouse.

A church in Conway that predates the 13th century town.
Back to see it on a sunnier day.
