Our events are scheduled for the last Thursday each month (we do not have one in December), each event starts at 7.30pm. Our events are open, all we ask is a small entrance fee of £3 for non-members. Our events are also an opportunity for people who share similar interests to us to come along an see if they like us and would like to join.

Having looked at the Lidar of the Roman fort of Segontium in Caernarfon, Gwynedd, North Wales, I put the buildings back into the scan and got this work of art!.
The Roman fort of 77AD lasted until the end of the Roman occupation making it one of the longest occupied forts in Wales. The Fort can be seen in the lower centre of the image. (The left hand rampart/corner particularly visible).
In the background is Edwards 1's especially fine castle.
