What is recorded here

Number seventeen on Castle Street in Beaumaris, Anglesey, still carries the ghost of R.A. Hughes and his chemical trade. The Post Medieval building stands as a sharp reminder that medicine and poison often share the same glass jar. Hughes may have measured life itself in tiny spoons, waiting for the right dose to reveal whether a person would live or disappear.
