One of Wales’ hidden gems, it’s located in splendid isolation overlooking the River Dee. But what’s so valuable about it? Like nearby Rug Chapel, Llangar gives little hint of what lies within. Join us for guided tour this Sunday: cadw.gov.wales/llangar-old-pa

#RevealTuesday🧐 Horn cup — horn was a commonly used material in medieval times. Animal horn is partly gelatine, and becomes very malleable once it has been softened in boiling water. It was the medieval equivalent of plastic, and was commonly used to make bowls and cups.
