Ruthin 1993

The charter was signed at Ruthin Castle.

During the medieval banquet at the Castle, Alain Kérouédan was crowned as the baron!

Ruthin and Briec dined together at the Anchor, and small groups of Bretons enjoyed time with their Ruthin hosts. Other pictures are from Llyn Brenig and Glasdir Auction Mart.

This was the first 'official' visit by the people of Briec/Pays Glazik to Ruthin. The centrepiece of the visit was the medieval banquet at Ruthin Castle, at which the Twinning Charters were signed and various gifts exchanged.

After a welcoming meal in Ye Olde Anchor Inn, our guests were entertained by a display from the Ruthin Majorettes at the Craft Centre, a visit to Pendref, the oldest Chapel in Ruthin, and a tour of the Glasdir livestock market. This was followed by a visit to Stryd Fawr - a farm which, unusually, raises Deer.

There was an opportunity to enjoy more fresh air at Llyn Brenig, where there was also a chance to enjoy the exhibition on the mechanics of water supply and the local ecology.

There was, of course, time to be at leisure with host families and develop friendships - many now firmly established. .

A warm send-off from the Anchor brought the stay to a celebratory end
