Can u identify this landscape view?
« on: Wednesday 14 May 08 00:39 BST (UK) »
This photo of me taken around 1960-62, probably in N Wales / Anglesey (remote possibility it could be Cornwall!!) 
Do you recognise this view from a hill overlooking a river estuary or coastline and village/town?

Hoping someone can help!!!

many thanks!

Looking down from the mountain, the road you see is Llaingoch.

The boy is sitting on Holyhead Mountain (Mynydd Twr).Looking out towardds the town of Holyhad. You can see the village of Llaingoch which is the group of houses nearest. Also the breakwater is just visible.
