One day it probably will again Share this:Click to share on Twitter (Opens in new window)Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window)Click to print (Opens in new window)Click to share on LinkedIn (Opens in new window)Click to share on Tumblr (Opens in new window)Click to share on Pinterest (Opens in new window)Click to share on Reddit (Opens in new window)Click to email a link to a friend (Opens in new window)Like this:Like Loading...

I remember Porthmadog well, Mike, and the Cob, and Cob Records (is it still there?) Lovely pic. Reply
Hi Mike. That’s a great picture with the mist in the mountains. I don’t know if it’s a good thing with the water coming in again. It certainly will be a beautiful sight but some people might loose their home at the same time. All the best, Hanna Reply
Perfect! I’m always amazed at how many people think that marshland is wasteland when it is just teeming with life and so necessary to nature.
It was once a tidal estuary Pat until they built a sea wall. Now its marshy farmland and nice wildlife habitat Reply

There will be beautiful waterfront property here for whoever is left alive at that time.
Yes and some mud flats for the birdies

Wouldn’t think sea water would be good for the land. Did the salt create a problem?
