Whitchurch is located about 15 miles across the border from Wrexham, North Wales, my place of birth, and a place I visit often now to see my wonderful Nan, Mrs Jean Summers (or Nan Summs as I call her!).

Unfortunatly, on this occasion, i'm visiting nan whilst she's a bit under the weather with pnemonia. Take a break and make a quick evening swim in the local 1960s built pool - which is in much need of maintenance but, really, is just showing the scars of a much loved and well used small town pool that has served the community well over the years.

Complete a quick 1,500 metres, grab some food from the supermarket next door, then back to Nan.
