This blog is created for the followers of Brian John's Angel Mountain Saga of eight novels, dealing with the life and times of a very imperfect heroine, Mistress Martha Morgan of Plas Ingli. She lived at about the same time as Jane Austen but struggled to survive in a very different world. Total sales for the series are now over 110,000, making this the best-selling fiction series ever published in Wales.

Carningli Lodge slipping away......
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........
