  • This is an absolutely beautiful thirteenth century Church built on a Roman Fort. This is St Mary's Church in Caerhun, Conwy, North Wales.
    St. Mary’s Church dates back to the 13th century and was built by the Cistercian Monks of Maenan Abbey. The Church is located in the North-Eastern corner of a large Roman fort called Canovium, which was built much earlier in 75AD. Legend suggests that the fort lasted long after Roman withdrawal. In the 6th century, it was occupied by the King of Gwynedd Rhun ap Maelgwn, hence the name Cae-rhun.

    I love how you can bash the hell out of a pub piano to entertain us and then you go into a church and treat it with such reverence entertaining us just as much. You really do have a true gift.

    Words to this hymn by Tommies in World War One:
    "When this bloody war is over
    No more soldiering for me
    When I get my civvy clothes on
    Oh how happy I will be
    No more Church parades on Sunday
    No more putting in for leave
    How I'll miss the sergeant major
    How his poor old heart will grieve

It's eerie that the graves are all around the yard. One tomb above-ground looked like the lid was opened a little. Creepy. Lol The church is beautiful! Lovely organ sound with you playing beautiful hymns. Beautiful architecture! These little old churches seem to be built solid. Perhaps why they've lasted so long. I love this adventure you are on, visiting these old churches. Beautiful to see and hear you play whilst looking around. Kudos to whoever is filming! Great pans of the entire church and its beauty.
