The house at No. 6 is a very low, round building, so low that to get inside you have to bend almost double. It's famous for being the home of the protagonist of the futuristic British TV series "The Prisoner" back in the 60's.

In north Wales, between lush forests and a river estuary, this entire village is the work of the architect St Clough Williams-Ellis, who devoted much of his life to building it.
