Garreg Tower

Image: © Jeanne Kendrick Taken: 2 Aug 2007

A sunny summer evening with an interesting shadow created by a small tree. A possible lookout tower and beacon that is imagined to date back to Roman times, maybe some similarities with Dover light house? Wonderful views to Liverpool, Irish Sea and Snowdonia. Mentioned in Thomas Pennant's "History of the Parishes of Whiteford and Holywell" in 1796
