Old Swimming Hole on the Elwy
Image: © Joseph Jones Taken: 3 Jul 2010
This stretch of the river was used by local kids as a swimming hole - running and jumping in from the east bank. This activity has now been stopped by the erosion defence walls and barbed wire fence. Rights of way follow both banks of the Elwy - the east one, which we are looking at, ends 100 metres south below Bryn Asaph.
