Cake or ice cream? The choice is endless ...
Nice offer, but sadly not. I’ve got nowhere to keep it. It would be a shame if it got broken up though.

'Pack-Horse Bridge' (aka Little Bridge)
off Wakefield Bridge (aka Chantry Bridge)
Masons mark is just to the right
As seen from the riverwards side
The stream has long since silted up/re-routed/been culverted

On Wakefield Bridge itself, but well-weathered
Twice widened, hence the round arches; http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/2761598
The original 14th C arches; http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/281864

Seems what I've for years thought was the top of Llanllwni mountain is actually Mynydd Llanfihangel-rhos-y-corn -- 51.998642, -4.179163
Mynydd Llanllwni is about half a mile to the North and does not have a road running over it
What I and most locals think of as Llanllwni mountain is actually more than one mountain
In my defence I'm from that London what do I know
