Boats moored on the River Dovey The River Dovey (Afon Dyfi) is a river in Mid Wales. The Dovey estuary forms the border between the counties of Gwynedd and Ceredigion. The Dovey rises in the small lake Creiglyn Dyfi at about 1,900 feet above sea level, below Aran Fawddwy, flowing south to Dinas Mawddwy and Cemmaes Road, then south west past Machynlleth to Cardigan Bay at Aberdyfi. It shares its watershed with the River Severn and the River Dee before flowing generally south-westwards down to a wide estuary. The only large town on its route is Machynlleth. Because of its origins high in the Cambrian Mountains and its relatively short length, it is prone to flooding and some roads in the lower catchment can become impassable during very wet weather. It has been a relatively pristine river with few polluting inputs and is notable for its Salmon and Sea Trout.

Literary Institute Aberdovey Set back from the south side of the A493. The village website records that the Literary Institute is one of the few buildings on the river/sea side of Aberdovey. It has had a long and chequered history. Founded in 1882, it was formerly an old bath house and a meeting place of the Plymouth Brethren. Nowadays its reading room is open to the public who are invited to enjoy the peace and tranquillity here while reading the daily papers. It was closed for a meeting on the day I visited. WiFi connections are available.
