This is a furiously hot day, and perhaps by the time I get to Holyhead, I may be so sun-burnt as to be able to pass for Cybi himself." Moelfre Owain Gwynedd Church of Penmynnydd The Rose of Mona. LEAVING Pentraeth Coch I retraced my way along the Bangor road till I came to the turning on the right.
As regards geology, the younger strata in Anglesey rest upon a foundation of very old pre-Cambrian rocks which appear at the surface in three areas: a western region including Holyhead and Llanfaethlu, a central area about Aberffraw and Trefdraeth, and an eastern region which includes Newborough, Caerwen and Pentraeth.
The part of the Pentraeth where I now was consisted of a few houses and a church, or something which I judged to be a church, for there was no steeple; the houses and church stood about a little open spot or square, the church on the east, and on the west a neat little inn or public-house over the door of which was written "The White Horse. Hugh Pritchard."
"Yes, I have been in Anglesey more times than I can tell." "Do you know Hugh Pritchard," said I, "who lives at Pentraeth Coch?" "I know him well," said the man, "and an honest fellow he is." "And Mr Bos?" said I. "What Bos?" said he. "Do you mean a lusty, red-faced man in top- boots and grey coat?" "That's he," said I. "He's a clever one," said the man.
The poor fellow looked pleased at what I said, more especially at that part of the sentence which touched upon his speaking Spanish well. Wishing him many years of health and happiness in the house he was building, I left him, and proceeded on my path towards Pentraeth Goch. After walking some way, I turned round in order to take a last look of the place which had so much interest for me.
