Like the title says, a topic for quiz questions about general knowledge and/or anything outside of the local area.  :)

When the Links pub  was first built (by Lady Augusta) how did the locals get to it ?

"The locals" would have been in Llanrhos, as The Links was built to replace the Mostyn Arms, which was across from Llanrhos Church......so like I said, down the bl**dy Conway Road.

Lady Augusta built the Links in the middle of boggy marsh land and as a result the locals had to get to the pub walking on PLANKS of wood.

Ah yes, Morfa Rhianedd.

You can still walk over a few planks, especially after closing time on a Saturday.
