Yes mikeeb, I also remember seeing this on the goggle box, it’s a Temple in India where they worship rats, they also worship old cows, it’s similar to modern day Celebrity worship.

Correct, Fidelio . Very good. Many beautiful things are poisonous with lecherous tendencies.

I think I remember the story of this one, some person looking after it and then eventually getting grants or something - but I can't remember where.

Obviously looks very North-Wales and I'm in two minds whether to say north or south of Holywell, I'll go south and guess Penmenmaur area (if I could spell it).

Not bad, DD. Right country, wrong town.

Smallest Church in the British Isles

It is St. Trillo's Chapel in Rhos -on-Sea. St Trillo's cell dating back to the 6th century, with a spring inside once used for baptisms and healing .

I remember visiting it when on holiday and about the age of 9 or 10. Just a simple visit with the usual photograph taken outside, but for some reason it was imprinted on my memory.

The well is underneath the altar.
