I have never seen the tide in either, I think it only occurs a few times a year. They are turning parts of the marsh into breeding grounds for certain wildlife. The shrimps were great years ago, I believe, but I dont think there is seafood on sale now. I just have ice cream and a cream tea in the Red Lion!

On a clear day, you get lovely views of the Flintshire coast across the Dee

Yes, thank you, the ceilidh video clip worked well.
It was reminiscent of the socials held at our church (a large Methodist mission) when I lived in Bolton.
