Aberystwyth university buildings under construction. They must have widened the promenade as I can’t remember the buildings being so close to the edge!! #Wales ##Universities #Aberystwyth

So fortunate to have this on the doorstep #myndamdroynyFro

Couple of hours at Kidwelly Quay, Sibe Chiff, Marsh Harrier. Nice to chat with @pembsbikingbirder.bsky.social #birdingWales

St David’s Cathedral, Pembrokeshire, Wales. The present cathedral was begun in 1181. The ceiling was constructed in the 16th Century from Irish oak. In the 17th Century, the cathedral was all but destroyed by Cromwell's forces.

Porthcawl running this morning. A tad under 4 miles.

#Sunset over Cardigan Bay, near #Aberaeron #Wales. The sky below the cloud was so clear the horizon was sharp as a knife, and when darkness fell, we could see the Goleudy Ynys Enlli lighthouse on #Bardsey island at the tip of the #Lleyn peninsula 75km away!

Pencoed Trailblazers at it again! 18 volunteers, 15 bags of rubbish & 80 metres of paths restored at Coed Iestyn today. A woodland still marked by its past as a clay pit that flooded in 1906. Huge thanks to everyone who showed up and helped this historic space keep recovering. 💚

Sarah Murphy MS for Bridgend & Porthcawl says we’re the friendliest, chattiest bunch around… so why not come test her theory? Come and join the Pencoed Trailblazers at Coed Iestyn, Pencoed this Saturday, 10–12. You’ll be welcomed with a smile.

It’s been cloudy mornings this week so here is another view from Sunday’s beautiful sunrise. This time looking west up the Usk valley from Crickhowell bridge.

In Tregaron, one of the bases of the 16th Century outlaw Twm Siôn Cati. Last year I hiked to his cave hideout near Rhandirmwyn. The road that connects the two places is one of the most scenic in Wales. Oh yes, here's a ghost story I wrote set on that road... 👻😊 thehorrorzine.com/Fiction/Jan2...

#HillfortsWednesday Less than a fortnight ago, I was enjoying the views from Crug Hywel, a brilliant Welsh site that gave the nearby town of Crickhowell its name.

Did a #SlowWays walk today: NarTen One (Narberth ➡️ Tenby, Pembs). Flooding meant a detour, but the scenery was gorgeous and the walk thoroughly enjoyable. Slow Ways is a brilliant initiative—helping walkers feel confident that routes are safe & accessible. #Walking #Pembrokeshire #NarTen #Wales

Honoured to receive a mayoral award this weekend for protecting green spaces and rights of way across Pencoed. I’m really grateful to all Trailblazers volunteers who make this possible 💚💚. #Pencoed #OpenSpaces.

Christ on a bike am I lucky to live here. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 Needed to blow the cobwebs out. Dragon’s breath in so we decided we’d go up and get above it. Cleared 5 mins before we left. 🙄 But instead we got VIEWS. Food for my soul.

A view from the south-west of the amazing Foel Trigarn in the Preseli Hills of Pembrokeshire. What a statement it must have been in the landscape. 📸 mine from April this year. #HillfortsWednesday #Archaeology #Ironage #Cymru #Tardy

Popped over the border into Wales to see our mates, The Scowles play an early evening gig at the Three Tuns in Chepstow. The place was buzzing and they played a belter. I didn't get any photos of the band but I did get a bonus shot of Chepstow castle looking atmospheric as we came out of the pub.

We’ve opened up Joker’s Field so locals can enjoy the green space. Now let’s do more together. Join us and make a difference on our next community action day! 20 December 2025, 10-12pm Coed y Iestyn, Pencoed. #Pencoed #Trailblazers #Cymru #Wales #Community #Action #Bridgend #PencoedTrailblazers

The famous picturesque Hafod Arch above Devil's Bridge, Ceredigion 🥰 Built by Thomas Johnes of Hafod to celebrate the Jubilee of George III's accession in the early C19th, & now a notable climb for all local #cyclists 📷 My own, Saturday

I caught the train and bus to Broad Oak, Carmarthenshire from Haverfordwest, and then cycled to Cilsan Bridge to see Whooper Swans wintering there. It was lovely to ride a section of newly constructed cycle path through the Tywi Valley from Carmarthen to Llandeilo 😊 🚴

✨ Hidden for 25 years… now uncovered! Our amazing 23 volunteers cleared 30m of scrubland to reveal a forgotten route + stile 🌿. And they didn’t stop there—165kg of rubbish lifted from Jokers Field. 💚 Huge thanks Trailblazers—you’ve made history visible again and kept our paths clean.

A wet day at Laugharne castle. Splashed through the puddles and rain pouring down. Rewarded with a Welsh cake & coffee.

Caerleon amphitheatre. Built in AD90, it held up to 6000 spectators. It's an amazing feeling walking down the ancient steps. The third photo shows an alter, where a small statue of a god or goddess was placed, so the gladiators could worship before a fight! 🏟️

I always love visiting Little Haven nature reserve, something special about it and the way the trees frame the path 🙂

Join us for an evening all about Water Voles! Come along to Cowbridge Town Hall on 13th November for a short film screening and Q&A with Water Vole experts to learn about their recent reintroduction to the River Thaw. Book your place: champ.ly/Yq_El1AM 📸 Terry Whittaker/2020VISION

Remembering the Welsh Poet Dylan Thomas ..born this day on 1914 , this is Laugharne Castle , not far from me , where he wrote a lot of his work , it belonged to a friend who let him use a room in the castle wall over looking the Taf Estuary to write in when there was too much chaos at home

Chepstow is a lovely old market town. I've never seen the river Wye so high! What a sight!!
