phone: 01248 810921

Beaumaris Gaol in Steeple Lane was built in 1829 by Joseph Hansom, the man who also designed the Hansom Cab. It is famous for its brutal punishment methods and a number of hangings took place there. It is now a museum with exhibits, some rather gruesome, revealing what it must have been like for prisoners then.

Llandegfan Menai Bridge Isle of Anglesey LL59 5PN

phone: 01248 713410

Don't be put of by the name - pronouncing it is probably the most difficult thing about our fishery - and you don't need a passport to get to Ynys Mon (the Isle of Anglesey). Translated literally, it means lake in the bog or marsh. It appears on original Ordnance Survey maps as a marshy area covering part of what is now the Carp Lake and the adjoining land. The marsh is still there, attracting countless species of birds, butterflies, wild flowers and other forms of wild life
