Flitly-Smith studied railways probably like no other covering areas which most mortals would ignore or pass over as irrelevant to their own interest. Consequently much would have been lost to history had it not been for his recently discovered texts on amongst things as The facilities of the Somerset & Dorset Hammock (sleeping) cars in WW2 Water troughs on the Isle of Wight Pullman on the Listowel & Ballybunion & of course GWR Signal Box Cat. I promise most have more than a grain of truth so if you are or know someone who professes to be a rail expert let them wile away an evening or two seeking out the truth
- or not as the case maybe! Beautifully illustrated both with the genuine photograph & the drawings of the renowned Peter Barnfield this is a book to enjoy entertain & amuse.

Beaumaris Caernarfon Conwy and Harlech castles are unsurpassed as works of medieval military architecture.

Prehistoric and Early Christian sites of immense evocative power are scattered through the mountainous
interior intermixed with a unique inheritance of early industrial monuments including vast slate quarries and some celebrated narrow-gauge railways. The diverse towns include the planned Georgian settlement at Tremadoc and the ambitious seaside resort of Llandudno. Atmospheric medieval churches prolific Nonconformist chapels and houses in distinctive vernacular traditions are plentiful throughout. Altogether no area of Wales is more rewarding to the architectural traveler.
