Croeso I Gymru/Welcome to Wales
This nice old sign once resided very close to the border by the Anchor Hotel. Its removal by the council caused an outcry and it was eventually returned to an insignificant location in a layby some 100 metres from the border. It now has to fight for recognition with a street light (plus Christmas decorations), and advertising hoardings for a Saab dealership and a Shell petrol station. The odd angle of the shot is the only way to do some sort of justice to the sign without including all the other items.

Great Western House
This historic locomotive shed, redundant but now modernised, shows what can be achieved with some thought rather than a bulldozer. It is shown on the 1882 Ordnance Survey map within a complex of railway sidings and other buildings, but it seems to be the only survivor from those times. It stands alongside Boundary Lane, which is more or less the boundary between England (where the building is) and Wales where the camera is. Boundary Lane meets the A5104 just to the left of the camera.

Bench mark on #63 High Street, Saltney
This Ordnance Survey bench mark was hidden for many years behind the render on this former police station in High Street. The mark was uncovered earlier this year when the render was removed - Image, but now the building has been re-rendered leaving just the bottom of the arrowhead visible, painted black.

This Ordnance Survey bench mark has been hidden under rendering for many years until the rendering was removed recently during renovation of the former police station.
