Llangelynin church high above Conwy

The year's nearly at an end (one day so at least 1 photo still to take tomorrow)
since 2009 I've been taking a "photo a day" and here is the good, the bad and the ugly from 2017 (so far)

Saturday
The dilapidated, (mainly) Sandstone, boundary wall to Waterton Park, to my right (200 years old)
The Squire of the time, Charles Waterton, had it built to keep poachers off his land, and protect the wildlife within, often spending hours watching
It's being put forward for a UNESCO World Heritage listing, as the worlds first Nature Reserve

Yeh had to turn around and join back on the bridal path I'd taken the wrong path and ended up crossing over a small bridge onto the site! Didn't realise it was an Off road place till I got to the old farm and gated bit near the main road! Wont be going over there again needless to say!

I used to go to Tong (between Leeds & Bradford) with my 110
That had some big holes & deep water
Heck, Dave (the site owner) used to swim a Stalwart in one of the ponds!!

Frickley was tough going on a tourer, the Marathons had their work cut out to say the least! Ive ridden over most of the old pit sites my side of Doncaster like Askern and Carcroft with no end of people using 4×4's on them (obviously not legit!) So it didn't even register to me it could be a proper off-road place :blush:
