RAF Mona Airfield

Highlight • Historical Site

This location was first used for aviation during the First World War when the Royal Naval Air Service opened an airship base here named Royal Naval Air Station (RNAS) Anglesey (also known as RNAS Bodffordd, RNAS Gwalchmai and RNAS Llangefni).

RNAS Anglesey was commissioned on 26 September 1915, when it was operated by 14 Group RNAS, operating SS18, an SS class airship, which was later joined by airships SS22, SS24 and SS25. The station had in a large airship hangar, 120 by 318 feet (37 m × 97 m) long, workshops, hydrogen gas production sheds and accommodation huts. The airships, which could drop bombs, escorted ships and patrolled for enemy submarines in the central section of the Irish Sea between Bardsey Island, Dublin, the Isle of Man and Morecambe Bay. This area includes the approaches to the Port of Liverpool, then one of the busiest ports in the world.

Porth Llechog (Bull Bay)

The beach at Bull Bay is a very small one with shingle and rocks.

Bull Bay is a tiny coastal village on the main Anglesey road (A5025) situated between Amlwch and Cemaes Bay

The coastal village of Bull Bay is only1.5 miles from Amlwch and is entered via the Anglesey coastal road, the A5025, that hugs the beautiful coast in many places.

Cemaes Bay truly is a lovely everyman village with a pretty little harbour and two beaches.

Both beaches are perfect for all manner of fun beach activities, Sailing, Windsurfing and Surfing.

The Fishing can be excellent along the coast behind St Padrig's Church along the headand on the Llanbadrig Ledges.
Then, there is the absolutely staggering Anglesey Coastal Path leading to the east towards Bull Bay, Amlwch and all the way around again.
This portion of the Anglesey Coastal Path around Cemaes Bay really does take your breath away.
More or less everything that has been weighing heavy on your mind and heart dissolves away to a pleasant state of tranquil reflection.

Four Mile Bridge

Highlight • Bridge

The bridge itself takes the same name as the village it is situated in and is one of three bridges connecting Holy Island and Anglesey. The bridge is approximately four miles (6.5 km) from Holyhead via the old road route, giving it, and the village, its name. A bridge at this location was in existence by 1530, and was the only land route to Holyhead until the construction of the Stanley Embankment in 1823. It is 120 metres (390 ft) long and carries the B4545 road over the Cymyran strait.

I think the crossing over the water is about 5km
