The magistrates court building started life in the 19th century as a primary school in 1877. It was the original Ysgol Frongoch before being converted in 1987, becoming the magistrates court. The Court closed in 2013 despite local opposition and was subsequently bought by the council. The council have leased the building to the Denbigh Museum who plan to showcase local history, showing a number of exhibitions including some of the works of famous “Welsh Shakespeare” Twm o’r Nant, a Welsh language dramatist and poet, letters, books and a plaster cast of a hand from the Denbigh explorer HM Stanley, who found fame after finding lost missionary Dr Livingstone in present day Tanzania, and records of Denbigh’s history dating back to the thirteenth century.
Savage Vikings comes from an innocent comment made by our daughter (known on here as biggles2) whilst we were out caching in Derbyshire, close to Chatsworth Farm Shop. The clue for that cache (GC1VEW2) was SV and she asked "What does SV stand for, Savage Vikings?". We all found this so funny that the idea for a series was born. SV in fact stands for Sluice Valve and is part of the water main system.
