Ruthin Goal, North Wales, visits

[4737carlin]

This place is prety good, and not to far from Denbigh if the bearded one boots you out!! :D only £3.50 to get in, well worth it.

I went last year and had a look around inside, was driving past today on a roadtrip and stoped to grab a few externals so thought id bang it all up and see if anyone is interested, if your in the area swing past, they don't mind cameras and when i went it was pretty empty, just bang LL15 1HP in your sat nav and your there

You had to turn this lever a certain amount of times, like 200 or something, maybe more i can't remember, just some punishment to do just to earn your breakfest
