Chalets below Graig Fawr
The chalets are maybe a little too tightly packed in on this site but my first impression may be wrong.

Memorial bench on the Prestatyn-Dyserth Way
The bench stands for a local young man and it is touching to see that his family and friends have strung up some Christmas decorations around and above the bench. There are also a few nicely worded wreathes and messages. I hope the site is respected.

Dyserth Quarry - site of Dyserth Castle
Coflein place the site of the C13 stone castle slap bang in the middle of the quarry (at Image) which is at odds with the location over 300 metres further east inaccurately indicated on modern Explorer Ordnance Survey maps. To be fair, the modern 1:50,000 OS map has it marked far more accurately, although one has to refer to a map of 1913 in order to discover the true site of the castle. At that time a few ruined towers and curtain walls were still standing, and these are marked correctly on the 1913 map. Subsequently most of the stone castle was destroyed by quarrying here in the early C20 leaving on the escarpment above, only the earthworks of the outer court and part of the ditch.
