It's a chance to gain insight into this pivotal moment in history. Additionally, we'll visit a beautiful church in Pileth that offers stunning views of the surroundings.
Afterwards, we'll cross the border into Herefordshire, leaving Wales behind. Our destination is the Penrhos distillery, where we can learn about the process of making award-winning gins from locally grown fruits. This distillery is known for its craftsmanship and dedication to creating high-quality spirits.
On our way back, we'll return to Cilmeri. If time permits, we can make a stop at a nearby waterfall called "Water Breaks Its Neck." This natural wonder offers a captivating sight as water cascades down, creating a breathtaking display of nature's power.
Our journey through these locations will give us a glimpse into history, the art of distillation, and the beauty of natural landscapes. It's an opportunity to appreciate the diverse attractions in the English-Welsh borderlands.
