Ynyslas Beach

This panoramic view of Ynyslas beach depicts the long and level sands leading into the Dyfi estuary. As the sign in the picture states, due to strong tidal currents this is a dangerous place to bathe but a great place for walks in the dunes or just catching the sun.

I was evacuated here in 1939.Stayed first at Gogerddan House, Ynyslas for two years then a house on the seafront. A mine was washed up on the beach, and was blown up by the Army - great fun. We collected shrapnell for months.

Borth! wow, what memories! When I was a little girl we used to spend many happy holidays there. My dad was a painter/decorator and he used to paint a bungalow that belonged to a family called Brotherton.In return we used the bugalow for a holiday, it was just down from the monument and I remember walking up to it many an evening before bed! It is my fondest memory of a childhood holiday and would love to be in touch with a member of the Brotherton family?! dating back to maybe 1969!

Oh, what memories, when I was a young girl, I dug up a mortar shell on the beach. The area was evacuated whilst it was dropped out at sea.
