the 1970's, this view, from Ruthin Road towards Graigwen farm and Hope
Mountain, has changed as most of the field was sold for housing. Spot the black labrador sitting in the flower pot!

| A nice view of Bwlchgwyn looking across
the gorse and Glascoed Road to the Penllyn mountain. Difficult to date,
this photograph was taken before the new building of the 60's and 70's
(although the view is little changed apart from the later planting of
trees) and before the Forestry Commission ruined the heather-clad and
slightly rocky sides of the mountain. At this time the trigonometrical
stone at the top of the mountain would have been visible from the village
- I should know - I climbed to the top enough times! Bwlchgwyn
