The Gower


Just back from six nights in three locations in South Wales. We started of at Usk, an attractive, floral town and then the Satnav took us a rather hair-raising journey, towing, down narrow lanes amongst giant tree roots, up onto a common with an amazing view, then across the valleys and down to The Gower. Somewhere we'd heard of but never been. We arrived there with some good weather.

I was reading Wesley's Journal at the time ( thanks, Mike) and was delighted to find this little cottage in Oxwich with a plaque saying this is where he had lodged and preached. I was impressed with the Journal and with the amazing amount of travelling he did, thousands of miles a year on horseback.

This was the view from the hill above the site on our last morning. Wild horses, sand and sea.
