This picture, c1969, was taken from the
bottom of the lane at the side of Brooklyn, across the main road to Wesley
Road. The white house in the centre of the picture is Brythonfa, to the
left is the house at the top of Fronheulog Hill, at the far right, just
visible at the edge of the picture, are the houses on Stryt Maelor. Bwlchgwyn

Bwlchgwyn, looking from the back of
Brooklyn, across Graig Wen to Cefn Road. Photograph taken probably in the
60s (after the pylons were erected) possibly with a Kodak Instamatic
camera! Bwlchgwyn

Two pictures of Maes Maelor - not strictly Bwlchgwyn,
Maes Maelor is roughly that part of Bwlchgwyn beyond the old Bethesda
Chapel, past the Four Crosses and along the moors. The lane shown above
[now gated] at the far end of the moors, just before the sharp bends, was
a public footpath joining the old Roman Road which runs across the picture
at the edge of the modern tree planting.
