Tineo

A good night's sleep in a warm bed and also clean clothes. The temperature is hovering between 3 and 5C and the forecast is for more bad weather in the next few days. We have to decide whether it is right to go on further into the mountains. Today (Thursday 13th) we will look around Tineo.


Tineo itself is very interesting. The original Town Hall, built in the early 19th century, was converted into the Assembly Rooms in the early 20th century and was opposite the café we visited on our way into town. The old tower is at the back of the town hall and there are chickens in the old stables on the street at the side.

Our sellos came from the Rents Department at the 'new' Town Hall, they were only too pleased to help us. There is a Roman milestone displayed on the staircase. There are a number of computers there too, free to use so we spent a short time there with a computer each.
