Pictures of the Miller Memorial at Penmaenuchaf, PenmaenpoolComprising of an inscribed slate plaque on a stone mill wheel,
the Miller Memorial is located at the "picnic spot" on the Walkers Welcome path through
the Penmaenuchaf woods. Its location at the picnic spot on a rocky cliffe provides an
excellent vantage point of the Mawddach Estuary and the mountain ranges in the north.
The stone mill wheel is one of a pair; the other being located in the top garden at Penmaenuchaf Hall. I am told that the two mill wheels, which are just within sight of one another, were laid as a tribute to the two Wynne-Jones boys of Penmaenuchaf who were both killed in World War II. |
