The ruins of #StDwynwensChurch on #YnysLlanddwyn for #SilentSunday.
The name of the tiny tidal island, "#Llanddwyn", means "the church of Saint Dwynwen". As the Welsh patron saint of lovers (and of sick animals, by the way), she's considered the equivalent of St. Valentine. Her church became a major shrine and pilgrimage site during the Middle Ages but fell into disrepair after the Reformation.

A picturesque scene of ancient stone ruins, likely the remains of a small chapel or church, perched on a grassy hillside overlooking the sea. The ruins feature two prominent arched windows, their weathered stone frames standing against the backdrop of a calm, expansive body of water. In the centre of the ruins, a tall, intricately carved Celtic cross stands as a focal point, adding historical and cultural significance to the scene. The surrounding landscape is a mix of grassy patches, rocky terrain, and low-lying stone walls, extending towards the coastline. The sky above is overcast, casting a soft, muted light over the tranquil setting. The overall atmosphere evokes a sense of timelessness and serenity, blending natural beauty with historical charm.

For #FootpathFriday, here's a #footpath on #YnysLlanddwyn, a tiny tidal island connected to #Anglesey, looking from #TŵrMawrLighthouse towards the ruins of St Dwynwen's Church. You might spot the remains just to the right of the #cross, blurred in the background.

A striking landscape photograph capturing a winding dirt path that leads uphill toward a prominent cross perched atop a grassy hill. The path is flanked by rugged, weathered limestone walls, creating a natural corridor that draws the eye toward the cross. The limestone formations are textured and uneven, adding a sense of age and history to the scene. Low, green shrubs and bushes line the base of the walls, contrasting with the earthy tones of the path and stone. The sky above is overcast, casting a soft, diffused light over the rolling hills and distant horizon, which adds a serene and contemplative atmosphere to the image.
