Two Islands in one day.

 



Holy Island, is just off Anglesey’s western edge, has an area of just 15 square miles It is called "Holy" because of the high concentration of standing stones, burial chambers, and other religious sites on the small island.

The South Stack Lighthouse is built on the summit of a small island off the north-west coast of Holy Island, Anglesey, Wales. It was built in 1809 to warn ships of the dangerous rocks below.

Elin's Tower is a Victorian stone folly it was originally used as a summer house, was built between 1820 and 1850 for the Stanley family and it is named after Elin the Welsh wife of the 19th Century politician William Owen Stanley.
