The border between England and Wales runs right through the heart of Llanymynech along its main street — literally splitting the village in two. The border runs right down the middle of the now-closed Lion pub and, according to folklore, when Montgomeryshire was dry, it was legal to drink alcohol on Sundays in the two English bars but not the Welsh bar. The Montgomery Canal also passes through Llanymynech.

What a beautiful place to visit. Some old buildings around, a nice canal and rich history with the Lime Kiln and Quarry.
