Mold Town Centre

Mold is a market town in North East Wales in the UK . It's just over the Welsh border, and is about 10 miles from the Roman city of Chester.

It is generally a quiet town, except on Market day, Wednesday and Saturday, when the town bursts into life. (The Cheese man on the market is well worth a visit if you like cheese as much as me). In fact, a few of the smaller villages outside Mold only get a bus service into Mold on Market Day.

At the top of the High Street is St Mary's Church. (Seen in the background of  the Mold Market picture). This church was built over 500 years ago, and, although I'm not a very religious person, it is an impressive building.

All the usual shops can be found on the High Street and the adjacent streets. Numerous Tea Rooms and Cafes can also be found. The Cheese Straws from the bakers are well worth a taste (I've got a thing about cheese haven't I?).

If your looking for a take-away in Mold, then I recommend 'The Big Fish', between the Bus Station and the bottom of the High Street, or 'Silver City', which is opposite the church.
