Long before Hans Christian Andersen put pen to paper to write his seminal work "The Little Mermaid" a little town on the North Wales coast was the scene of its very own mermaid tale.

The Conwy Mermaid is a 900-year-old legend that pre-dates the invasion of Wales by the English King, Edward 1st.

The best place to listen to this story is within The Jester's Tower, Conwy.
