Touring Wales by Pub

How about this for a challenge, have a pint in all the pubs, the ones that still exist that is (the book is in the shop but I think there are about 80 listed though that was 1968 just a year after breathalysers were introduced and folks still went to pubs).

Inns Wales (1)

I do have many more titles in this series, but I’ll be damned if I know where I have put them. This is unusual in that it is a hard back. Each pub included has a photo and description.

If you are having difficulty finding your way about and have a bicycle I have just the map for you.

I can do a bargain package of book and map for £5.00 but you will have to provide your own bicycle and pay for your own pints.

SORRY Just noticed the map will not help as the book covers Anglesey, Caernarvon, Denbigh and Flint.
