A look back to January 2013 - A very snowy Margam Park

Unfortunately I didn't venture out this weekend, so instead I thought I would look back to the 20th January 2013.

Exactly a year today we got alot of snow and one of the most beautiful places to see in the snow is Margam Park. Below you will see a selection of pics I took at the time.

It would be fantastic if we had some more snow soon. I actually read on Twitter today that Pen Y Fan was snowy this morning, so who knows it could be on its way - if not then perhaps a trip up to Brecon next Saturday may be on the cards :)

I love the effect you get when the sun hits snow
The castle looking magical with snowy roof tops

Snowy Trees

The frozen lake and a view of the castle in the distance

Margam's train tracks in the snow

A pretty robin with it's bright red chest
Not sure if this sheep is enjoying or disliking the snow :)
The snow was so deep in parts it was coming up to our knees!

Margam Park in the snow - Outstanding!
