Swansea Ramblers visited White Rock where Copper smelting made Swansea the Copper Capital of the world.
It had snowed overnight but 25 of us turned up to enjoy a walk in the sunshine.
Copperopolis has long disappeared but a few historic structures remain.
After seeing some of the industrial remains, we headed south to Bethesda where the famous orator, One-eye Christmas Jones is buried.
We had lunch at the Merchant Navy War Memorial then continued to the West Pier.
We had a tea-break on the beach sitting on a washed-up tree then headed north to return to White Rock.
Another lovely walk with Swansea Ramblers
