Visited the recently renovated St Elvan's Church this morning. Very impressive, with the benefit of now having an good in-house coffee shop (just visible off to the right hand side in the first picture) serving very good coffee ☕

>Founded in 1852 and located in the heart of the town of Aberdare, in the picturesque Cynon Valley, St Elvan’s has recently undergone an extensive £2 million renovation, and has now reopened as a vibrant new space featuring concert and conference facilities, an exhibition gallery, meeting rooms, heritage tours, our in-house coffee shop “Spires” and of course as a continued active place of worship.

Delighted to be able to repeat yesterday’s outdoor reading in the afternoon sun ☀️

Tomorrow looks like the return of more typical February cloud ☁️
