Beneath the surface of Lake Vyrnwy is an underwater village that refuses to be forgotten.
It's usually hidden by the reservoir, but thanks to weeks of dry weather and heatwave conditions, the houses that used to make up the old village of Llanwddyn have resurfaced.
Low water levels are obviously concerning from a human perspective and the rain due next week might well be the source of a much-needed refill, but the unusual conditions are giving visitors to the lake an interesting insight into its amazing history. Liverpool's city engineer first explored the possibility of damming River Vyrnwy to form a reservoir, creating a reliable water source for the rapidly-expanding population of the city.
