Excursions – 2016<\/strong>
\n
\nSat May 21st 2.00 -5.00 pm A Visit to Llanfairpwll Churchyard and Pwll Fanogl <\/strong>
\nLeave cars in the car park of St Mary\u2019s church.
\nThis walk of about 1.1 miles there and back, is along the foreshore from the Statue of Nelson to Pwll Fanogl. This may be rough underfoot but the tide will be down. Nevertheless wear suitable shoes. At Pwll Fanogl we can peer into Kyffin Williams\u2019 studio and look at a number of early industrial and coastal features including the old mill, the remains of a school slate manufactory, boat house belonging to Plas Llanfair. These remains have been studied by GAT and the afternoon can be an exercise in architectural detective work. On our return we can visit the lions beside the railway, the Anglesey Column outcrop (v. important geology \u2013 column sadly closed), or have tea at the hotel, or all three!
