A statue of Daniel Owen the localy born novelist outside Mold library. Mold's most famous son wrote only in Welsh and did a lot of his writing in the tailors shop that is now the Pentan pub.

"Not for the wise and learned have I written, but for the common people."

You wont miss St Mary's church at the top of the hill on the main street.

St Mary's is the resting place of Richard Wilson the landscape painter and founder of the Royal Academy. His tomb can be found round the back of the church.

If there are any birthdays in the family or on a mothers or fathers day this pub/restaurant is invariably where the Muguruki clan will end up. In fact this last mothers day this was where we spent our lunch time; on days such as mothers day it is essential to book early. Even when the place is full it never seems crowded, tables are well spaced out in all of the three rooms of the pub.

Roast dinners seem to be the most popular dishes but there is always a wide choice on daily changing menu. And there is always a choice for veggies like myself.

Good boozer this housed in the same building tha Daniel Owen's old man had his taylors shop and where Mold's most famous writer scribbled away.

Not only is this a good boozer for a drink and a meal but they now also have a comedy night.

Are you a freak of ancient Britain?
Well I am.

I've learned that The Mold Gold Cape comes from this Mold Town I've been to, and is listed one of the top ten treasures of Britain at the British Musem.
