A peek through the window of the King’s Head pub. It will be a cosy place to snuggle up this evening on Dydd Santes Dwynwen (St Dwynwen’s Day), the Welsh equivalent of Valentine’s Day. 25th January celebrates Dwynwen, the Welsh patron saint of friendship and love.

I’m not 100% sure to be quite honest, it certainly doesn’t get lots of publicity that’s for sure!

It also looks like a good place to warm up after a few hours of photo taking in the cold air.
