Carningli Lodge, on the side of Carningli, is of course the inspiration for Plas Ingli, the house of angels as featured in the stories of Martha Morgan. Over the years I have visited this spot hundreds of times, and have watched the old ruin gradually deteriorate. Bit by bit, the walls crumble and a thick blanket of grass and moss spreads up and over the ruins. A century ago, a family lived here -- this is where our neighbour Watkin Lewis was born. This is what it looks like today. How many more years will it be before it is entirely removed from view, as nature reasserts itself? Quite reassuring, in a way........
