Centuries ago toll roads were scattered across the country - a way for the government to raise fees for upkeep and maintenance. Today, very few remain but not all traditional tolls have vanished.
One one small road in Wales is still surviving to this day, it costs £3.50, and if you are lucky enough to travel on it, you will have access to one of the island's most spectacular locations.
Penmon, which sits in the south-east corner of Anglesey, offers views out across the Gwynedd and Conwy coastlines and is one of the most popular visiting places for both locals and tourists alike - offering a mix of coastline and historical locations. Many travel down to this spot to see the lighthouse which sits between Penmon Point and Puffin Island, the closest you can get to the island without a boat.
