Looking from our shop on the pier yesterday afternoon towards the Great Orme.
The building visible on the left is opposite where the toll is now collected for vehicles wanting to go around Marine Drive, and below is an excerpt taken from Old Llandudno with regard to Marine Drive:
The first route round the perimeter of the Great Orme was a footpath constructed in 1858 by Reginald Cust a Trustee of the Mostyn Estate. In 1872 the Great Ormes Head Marine Drive Co. Ltd. was formed to turn the path into a carriage road. Following bankruptcy, a second company completed the road in 1878. The contractors for the scheme were Messrs Hughes, Morris, Davies, a consortium led by Richard Hughes of Madoc Street, Llandudno. The road was bought by Llandudno Urban District Council in 1897.

Seems kind of sad to me that there’s a toll to drive along the Marine Drive. Hmmmm.

That’s interesting, I tend to forget that roads have a history too!
P.S.: send some blue over!
