Ffrith Beach to Prestatyn
We took a walk from Ffrith Beach to Prestatyn over the August Bank Holiday 2019 the weather was good, and the walk was done very slow and leisurely.
It was just about low tide and this is a really enjoyable walk. You will note that we walked on the actual beach on the tide line.
But there is a hard standing route just above the beach for wheelchair users / scooters, cyclist as well as pedestrians.
BBC Two Britain in Bloom Series 2 Episode 10 Prestatyn 5th April 2019
Chris Bavin travels to the Welsh coast to meet a group of Bloomers who want to keep Prestatyn in Denbighshire on the tourist map and win gold again after five years of missing out.
Firstly, they are giving an old refuse tip a complete environmental overhaul by ripping out the weeds and creating raised beds to make it a more welcoming place.
Next, a makeover for a recently decommissioned railway signal box, which was saved from demolition by the community.
Finally, the Bloomers will convert a park at the top of the high street into a vibrant public events space. All of this to do and only four weeks till judging day.

Prestatyn is a seaside resort, town and community in Denbighshire, Wales. Historically a part of Flintshire, Prestatyn is located on the Irish Sea coast, to the east of Rhuddlan. Prestatyn railway station is on the North Wales Coast Line which connects the town with Holyhead to the west and Chester to the east. Bus services are provided by Arriva Buses Wales.
The town's population remained at less than 1,000 until the arrival of the railways and the holidaymakers in the 19th and 20th centuries. Sunny Prestatyn became famous for its beach, clean seas and promenade entertainers, and visiting for a bathe was considered very healthy by city-dwelling Victorians. During the Second World War the holiday camps were used as billets for British soldiers, many of whom were also sent to live with locals.
Prestatyn was the home of the first UK Kwik Save supermarket in 1965; Prestatyn was also the home of the firm's business headquarters. The Kwik Save store was renamed Somerfield following a takeover in 2007, and was finally demolished in 2008 when surrounding land was bought by Tesco.
Although Prestatyn remains a tourist destination and resort town, the town is diversifying in response to the decline of the British seaside holiday. The NHS is planning to open an elderly care facility in the town to serve north Denbighshire, and the opening of big name shops and supermarkets looks set to increase the town's status as a shopping centre. Merlin Cinemas have taken over the Scala cinema, a digital cinema with films, exhibition and theatre venues.

GHOST of Wepre Park & Ewloe Castle,nr Connah's Quay in Flintshire, Wales.
Originally established next to an ancient forest, Wepre woods and estate are described in the Domesday book, situated within the Hundred of Atiscross, measuring 0.5 leagues.The park is home to Ewloe Castle
Ewloe Castle, which was built around 1257, is a relic of a brief triumph that the Welsh prince Llywelyn ap Gruffudd had over the English Crown and the Anglo-Norman Marcher Lords in the mid 13th century. Until then, this part of north east Wales had been the starting point for repeated Norman invasions of Gwynedd for more than 150 years.
Legends say the castle is haunted by the ghost of 'marching men' and, in the surrounding 160 acre woodland between Connah's Quay and Ewloe, Nora the Nun is said to walk.The area had already written itself into the history books as the Battle of Ewloe in 1157 saw 200 Welshmen led by Owain Gwynedd, who was then king of north Wales, nearly kill English monarch Henry II.
The fight in Ewloe wood was close to where the ruins of Ewloe Castle stand.BATTLE OF Ewloe here
But beginning in the early 1230s, the Princes of Gwynedd had had started to gain the upper hand against the Anglo-Normans and Plantagenets who had taken territory in North Wales. Eventually by the late 1250s, the Welsh had reached Ewloe retaking lands up to the England–Wales border. A fortification had existed on or near the site since the Battle of Ewloe (Welsh: Brwydr Cwnsyllt) in 1157, when the Welsh successfully ambushed an English force under the command of Henry II (as they marched to Twthill at Rhuddlan). The English king only narrowly avoiding being killed himself having been rescued by Roger, Earl of Hertford.
Wepre Park is one of North Wales’ most popular destinations for family fun, however the Connah’s Quay beauty spot has a terrifying dark side...
The park has an illustrious past having once been part of the Wepre Hall estate, however nothing now remains of the hall now after it was demolished in the 1960s.
The grounds are also home to the remains of Ewloe Castle which was built by Welsh Prince Llywelyn ap Gruffudd in 1257.
But despite the picturesque surroundings, legend tells that the ancient woodland is a hive of paranormal activity and when darkness falls things go bump in the night.
The park has long had a reputation for being haunted with sightings including a floating Nun called Nora, a pack of spirit dogs, a singing woman, and even a phantom army complete with a headless horseman.Undoubtedly its most famous ghoul is Nora the Nun who is said to haunt the Rosie pool and has been spotted by dozens over the decades floating over the waterfall and in the castle grounds.
It’s thought that she drowned in the Rosie pool after giving birth to an illegitimate child and unable to live with herself threw the baby into the water.
While other popular stories say she had her head cut off after an affair with a monk or was possibly hit by a bomb near the waterfall.
Over the years people have described her as an “angry faceless nun” with some claiming to have heard her humming while walking across the top of the waterfall.John Williams from Connah’s Quay said: “I can remember seeing Nora one night during a midnight walk by the waterfall with my dog. My dog started whining and when I looked up I saw her floating across the waterfall and could faintly hear a humming noise. But then she vanished into thin air.”
It’s also claimed that a pack of ghost dogs roam the woods, which are said to come from a pet cemetery at the old Wepre Hall where generations of family dogs were buried with their own headstones.While others say that if you go down to the castle late at night when it’s stormy the sound of drumming and the noise of a marching of an army can be heard, with some even claiming to have felt the wind of passing horses.

#TrainWorkLive @MedicsNWales
‘#TrainWorkLive @MedicsNWales’ is a short video by Old Colwyn GP, Dylan Parry, aimed at providing a brief snapshot of his ‘train, work, live’ experience in North Wales. For more about Dylan's portrayal of his life as a General Practitioner in the Welsh NHS, please visit his Twitter blog: (particularly the #Abergele ( photos of Abergele area ) #medicsnorthwales, #PrudentPrescribing ( tweets about prudent prescribing element of Prudent Healthcare ) and #TrainWorkLive (tweets about what it's like to train, work and live as a GP in North Wales) hashtags, his Facebook page: and his YouTube channel:
Dylan is a GP partner at Cadwgan Surgery, works as a Wales Deanery GP Educational Supervisor and Trainer on the Dyffryn Clwyd Vocational Training Scheme, was awarded RCGP Fellowship in 2013, has participated in, and provided advice and support as part of the medical team for the endurance challenges organised by the Cerddwn Ymlaen charitable campaign - and is a big fan of cycling and Liverpool Football Club. His LinkedIn profile can be found here: . He hopes that this video will help interested school children and medical students ' Think GP ' and choose a career in General Practice, and post-MRCGP GP trainees to apply for posts in Wales; and that it convinces them that there's nothing to fear about such a career choice, and that family medicine thrives. For those unfamiliar with healthcare in the UK, the Welsh Assembly Government has had a devolved responsibility for NHS Wales since 1999, and has a healthy and exciting future with no junior doctors contract dispute. BCUHB, which stands for Betsi Cadwaladr University Healthboard, is responsible for healthcare provision in North Wales.
