JanPV on Nostr: One of North Wales' largely unrecognised world-class heritage structures: ...
One of North Wales' largely unrecognised world-class heritage structures: multicellular sheepfolds, found only in a small number of countries.
Beautiful pastoral structures are ignored within Wales in favour of English castles and English-owned slate quarries and their vast mountains of waste.
It's almost as though heritage is only valuable if it fits an English-mandated historical narrative and you can bus people to it for tourist (money-making) purposes.
