Public House

What is recorded here

It is the largest room, the biggest table, the widest chair for travellers exhausted by castle cliffs and coastal roads. People may have sat there after dark, drinking warmth and telling stories about the castle above. The inn still gives Criccieth a human scale, small enough to remember and old enough to trust.
