Llanfairfechan (6)

Whenever we are in north Wales, we try to go over to see Llanfairfechan, Herbert North’s model village, which he developed in the grounds of his father’s estate, beginning in 1899 whilst working for Lutyens and moving up Park Road.

This is one of the best preserved:-

Then, it is always a treat to see the Churchmen’s Club, tucked on a path immediately behind the earlier Churchmen’s Institute, so redolent of village life between the wars:-

The charity which looks after the two buildings has been looking for someone to take them over.  I have tried to find someone who might be interested without success.  They are only an hour and a half from Liverpool.
