Llanfihangel-y-Pennant

A view from the ruins of Castell y Bere in Llanfihangel-y-Pennant* near Tywyn, Gwynedd on a beautiful winter day earlier this year. Castell y Bere was probably begun in 1221 by Prince Llywelyn ab Iorwerth.

 

*Llanfihangel-y-Pennant meaning "church of Mihangel in Pennant", with Pennant meaning "head of a valley". If you see a place name in Wales beginning with "Llan" then it will have or had a church.
