A TOUR ROUND NORTH WALES. 47 



Dinas Bran crowning the fummit of 

 it's deep mountain. The whole of the 

 vale, as far as Llangollen, lay nearly in 

 a line, and was richly varied with wood, 

 . rock, and pafture. The fcene was clofed 

 in the horizon by the far diftant Britifli 

 Alps, which bounded the fight. 



From this ftation I went along the 

 fide of the Dee, clambering over hedges 

 and ditches, till I came to Pen y Llan, 



the feat of Lloyd, Efq. from 



whence I had another charming view of 

 this pleafing country. 



I returned to Ruabon, and rambled 

 from thence to Bangor Ifcoed, a vil- 



\s 



lage about ten miles diftant. I pafled 

 through Overton, a pretty little place, 

 feated on an eminence at a fmall dif- 

 tance from the Dee. Near the bridge 

 I had another fine profpecl on this ro- 

 mantic dream, the fcenery of which was 

 ibmewhat firm'lar to that of the new 



bridge on the road to Chirk.
