LITTLE WHITE RABBIT'S AUTUMN WALK TO VALLE CRUCIS ABBEY

Two weeks ago Little White Rabbit enjoyed an Autumn walk around Llangollen, passing the Chain Bridge Hotel (hopefully the bridge will be repaired in the not too distant future), The Horseshoe Falls and returning via Valle Crucis Abbey founded in 1201 by Madoc ap Gruffydd Maelor, Prince of Powys. The abbey is now a ruin in a beautiful corner of the valley. Its stones still show marks of a fire which severely damaged the buildings in the 14th century.
