The private chapel at Y Faenol
Another well haunted edifice. Items on the ghostly goings on at Y Faenol are contained on the following link. The second link which contains a video shows, towards its end, the empty mausoleum of the Old Hall (not be confused with the mausoleum in the woods) Even in broad day-light of a summer's day this is a really spooky place. On dark winter nights it is better left to the dear departed.

The remains of the Faenol dangerous animals zoo
George William Duff Assheton-Smith, who inherited the estate in 1869 was not content simply with breeding bison, rare cattle and race horses, he also had to have a zoo of dangerous animals in his 'back garden'. These included bears and tigers. The zoo was dispersed in 1930.

The Faenol buildings from the Glan Faenol lane
Faenol (a mutation of Maenol) is a corruption of the English word 'manor'. Faenol itself was then corrupted back into Vaynol - which means nothing in either language.
