About the Book
A book of photographs taken in just one week in the Black Mountains of Wales using only a small compact camera, albeit with a fine Leica lens.



The Honddu Valley has many old churches, a monastery and the famous Llanthony Priory. The tiny road starts at the Skirrid Inn, the oldest pub in Wales and leads on up through the Gospel Pass to Hay on Wye. It is one of the most picturesque valleys and has a very special spiritual feel to it. The people who live there are exceptionally friendly and caring.
