I've been past it a few times. If it gives Yorkie a clue, the road it is on is between 2 pubs...  ;)

It certainly looks very similar to this place I photographed a few years back!  :laugh:

Where in N Wales would you find a phone box, letter box and a new shop all together?      $walesflag$

new shop = siop newydd.  $walesflag$

Well done Jack and Dave.     $good$

This photo was going to be my next clue but you both beat me to it.

Bri,  it gives Yorkie a chance to brush up on his Welsh.     :)        $walesflag$

Ik ben heel blij met de Welsh ik ken, en ook mijn Duits, Frans en Portugees, maar toch bedankt.

da iawn Yorkie,  yr wyf yn creu argraff gyda'ch amrywiol ieithoedd ond byddai iaith fwy Cymreig yn eich helpu
i gael rhai atebion.     $good$ $walesflag$

We would be able to get more answers if google would work in Welsh.  :)

You are, of course, quite right Hugo, a little more Welsh would be of great help.  Unfortunately my present knowledge of the language is mainly limited to the usual everyday pleasantries and lots of names of things and places.   I just cannot string a sentence together.  However, i shall now be looking for the cryptic Welsh in your future "clues".

Snowcap, it was just plain old ordinary Dutch.  Merci, danke schon, obrigado.

From Yorkie- ''Unfortunately my present knowledge of the language is mainly limited to the usual everyday pleasantries and lots of names of things and places.   I just cannot string a sentence together''. 


I know the feeling Yorkie, I just don't have enough phlegm to achieve it!

Yorkie, the reason I do things like that is that I know that you are so good at finding things and try to make it a bit more of a teaser but I put this after the clue to let you have an idea.    $walesflag$

For instance in the last one if you had put " Siop Newydd Conwy"  into Google you'd have got the answer immediately and that wouldn't have been a challenge to you, so I changed it to new shop instead, but trust Dave to have already taken a photo of it!

Where will you find this desirable property?  Also what is its famous attribute?
It has certain similarities to some Dutch Buildings but is in England.
