Photographer and educator Aled Rhys Hughes tells the story behind one of his favourite photographs from his Cwm Eigiau project shot over 40 years documenting the dam wall that failed on 2 November 1925, with the resulting flood of water killing 16 people – 10 adults and six children - in the old village of Dolgarrog below site of the dam.
Part of Ffoton’s ongoing #OneImage series of stories behind photographs.
