Herb Riddle's photos with the keyword: Moelfre

A view of the Moelfre Lifeboat Station that has a remarkable history of bravery with its lifeboat crews being awarded 37 medals for gallantry. Two of the Gold Medals were awarded to the outstanding figure in the station's history - Coxswain Richard (Dic) Evans - see adjacent photo of his memorial statue by the artist Sam Holland. Sighted just around the corner of this station. Thanks to Toz, and his research. He has a fine photo on here too: www.ipernity.com/doc/2405228/50819006 Enjoy full screen.

A view eastwards towards the Welsh mainland over this small flat Island near the village of Moelfre. The distant headland is in fact the Great Orme of Llandudno. See adjacent photo for alternative view. Enjoy full screen.

Having passed the little rock beach (seen here to the left) we march onwards towards the village of Moelfre but before we get there I spy these sat here drawing the scenery. Each had paper, pens and pencils and where so intent on their work they hardly noticed me. You can also see our coastal path centre right, full of other intrepid walkers. The crowded beach and bay was just beyond the last outcrop seen here in the distance. PiP's Enjoy full screen.

Just west of the coastal village of Moelfre is a pretty strange beach. It is strewed with pebbles and rocks. Over time visitors have built many small rock towers, this photo showing only a small portion of it. At first we thought it might be in memory of something that happened here but no, I cannot find any references to that. It was in fact a bit difficult even to find the path onto this beach. The first PiP shows a close-up and the second PiP shows a small distant island with a tower that could also be seen from here. (Ynys Dulas) Enjoy full screen.
