March 28, 2026, Prestatyn Stone Circle

There are free public toilets at this site. The graffiti in the cubicles in the gents is both graphic and obscene. Something to consider if you have children of reading age. The facilities are otherwise spotlessly clean.

September 6, 2025, St Trillo's Chapel

"This fascinating building is thought to be the smallest church in the British Isles, seating only 6 people. It is named after St. Trillo, a 6th century Celtic saint who built his cell here. The age of the present building is not known, as it has been heavily repaired over the centuries. St. Trillo’s original cell is more likely to have been made of wood and wattle, although he may have built a wall of stones gathered from the beach to protect it from the wind."
