Leighton Hall
Leighton Hall viewed from the passing B4388. The house is a grade 1 listed building which was built for John Naylor, who was one of the richest men in Victorian England, replacing an earlier house. The hall and estate buildings were designed by Liverpool architect W H Gee whilst the hall interior design in Palace of Westminster style is attributed to A W N Pugin.
Llyn Coed-y-Dinas
Nature reserve managed by the Montgomeryshire Wildlife Trust, adjacent to the Welshpool By-pass. Canada Geese were overwhelmingly in the majority at the time of my visit.
Coed y Dinas garden centre from the by pass road
The floral display here caught my eye - even though the daffs are now fading the effect is still a good one. Taken safely, promise.
View to the old mill, Cil-cewydd
An interesting environment surrounds this venerable building.
The old mill, Cil-cewydd
An old corn mill serving the Leighton Estate I believe. Now surrounded by some sort of yard, maybe a coach company or hauliers.
Vintage vehicle rally at Coed y Dinas
Held in the field adjacent to the garden centre, this rally formed a peripheral part of the Welshpool Street Festival. Sadly the weather was typical of this summer so far with intermittent showers of rain and there were few visitors to the rally.
This view looks WNW towards the saw mill on the other side of the A458.

Presumably the double row of fencing is to do with sorting livestock. On the right the storage yard behind Charlies Country Store.

This is a 1939 Albion truck with, apparently, two female drivers. The top of the radiator reminds me of the label on a tin of Brasso.
