Capel Garmon
Chambered Cairn

This is rather a bizarre thing to post, but I saw one of the photos on this page is a sign saying ‘Ancient Monuments Can Be Dangerous’. Well, turns out that they are. So stop messing about (like Postman’s son in another photo), and make sure you drink your milk:

Capel Garmon. Accident.
A nasty accident befel the little daughter of Mr Roberts, the roadman, on Friday last, whilst some of the school children were out with the mistress inspecting the cromlech at Ty’nycoed Farm. It appears that the little girl fell into the cromlech and broke her thigh. She is under the care of Dr Prichard, and is progressing favourably.

And that was the last time that school went on a field trip (I expect). In the Weekly News and Visitors’ Chronicle for Colwyn Bay, 29th June 1906.
