Betws y Coed, Edited Version, Conwy, Wales (UK), 2012

Betws y Coed means "Prayer House in the Wood," but this church isn't the original one. This is St. Mary's Church, although I don't have much more information. Betws y Coed has some significance to railway history as it was one of the original stations on the Conwy Valley Line, which was a London & North Western Railway branch that connected the Ffestiniog narrow-gauge railway to Deganwy, as this connection was necessary for the Ffestiniog's slate traffic to be carried onward via coastal shipping. I don't have information on whether the Ffestiniog's backers contributed to the L&NW's building the Conwy Valley, though.
