St Michael’s church clock-tower announces the town and is a real landmark for travellers driving north from Llanfair TH, west from St Asaph and east from Llanddulas. I was dismayed when thieves stole the lynchgates a few years ago; what kind of man steals from a Church?

As the sun projects its rosy warm pink dawn light, I see it, and I know I’ve arrived home.
