GLANNAU RHOSCOLYN SSSI (SPA)- NORTH (MAP 1)
This spectacular coastline, one of
the finest stretches of the Anglesey coast, stretches from
Trearddur Bay to Silver Bay and includes some impressive cliffs, sea
arches and caves. There are patches of spotted rock-rose, the county
flower, dotted amongst the heath, and walkers are invariably
entertained by an aerial display from the resident chough. The multiple
folds of the highly metamorphosed Precambrian rocks pose a puzzle or
two for geologists.
