All I can tell you is that it is a small church by the beach Most Holy Redeemer, Borth Road.

wrong church but not a million miles away Yorkie


Borth-y-Gest

If you walk along the waters edge – past the car park, and up on the foot path, you will arrive at a spectacular viewing point – with views of the mountains to your left, Portmerion across the water in front of you, Harlech castle to your right, and finally the estuary heading out to the powder house – the picture is the old church (which would be behind you at this viewing point.

Apart from the inscription I would be inclined to say Monte Casino, but it does look like a copy of it.

Spot on Andy  D)

The commemorative cross stands outside the chapel in Penrhos. Erected over 60 years ago, the cross itself is made from the wing-spars of a Wellington bomber.
Penrhos, a former WW2 Royal Air Force base, has been home to Poles since the end of the war, when it became a resettlement camp. It is still home to many elderly Poles; many more have ended their days in this corner of North Wales.

Very interesting - will do a bit more research and have a look at it.    I wonder if they do Pole dancing?   Z**

We've been there a few times for car boot sales on sunny summer days and it has a very pleasant peaceful feeling there.
