Our April Meeting – “The Holy Dee”

Tuesday 7pm at Carrog Village Hall on 8th April- an illustrated talk by author and historian Peter Evans. Peter’s talk will be based round his book of the same name: ” The Holy Dee, ever changing, ever constant. From her open-mouthed estuary, she follows a man-made channel, through Roman founded Chester and picturesque Llangollen, to dissenting Bala.

Mae afon sanctaidd y Ddyfrdwy yn newid beunydd, ac eto mae hi’n gyson beunydd, o’i haber agored lle y dilyna sianel a agorwyd gan ddyn, drwy ddinas Rufeinig Caer a phentref tlws Llangollen hyd at dref anghydffurfiol Y Bala.”

Pete Evans is an author and tour guide who was brought up on Anglesey and now lives in the border lands of North Wales.

He has written two books to date on the joy of walking along rivers, their history and natural history.

Resurrection River on the river Alun was published in 2017, while the Holy Dee was published in 2021.
