Llandudno's North Parade, near the entrance to the pier, was redesigned in 2000, as part of a plan for raising the sea defenses after the catastrophic flooding of June 10 1993.
However, the flood was not caused by the sea but by the inability of the drainage system to cope with 5 1/2 inches of rain which fell in three hours, during high tide.
The new pumping station at West Shore, that had opened a year previously failed, due to flooding of it's electrical system, and the rest, as they say, is history.
