The Marquess of Anglesey’s Column stands on an outcrop of rock in beautiful
woods, sparking historical and geological interest. The column, built in 1817, has 115 steps leading up to the statue of the Marquess and the viewing platform, which offers stunning views over Anglesey, the Menai Straits, and Yr Wyddfa (Snowdon).

On site, you can learn about the fascinating history of the Battle of Waterloo, where the Marquess fought courageously and lost his leg. You can also learn about the area’s unique geology.
