Oooo Jack, so close I have to give it to you. It is Wynn Gardens and is the entrance on the Wynnstay Road side.
There loads of lovely stone carvings in that park.
Just found this about it,
"Included in the scheme will be artworks and sculptures which are being funded by the Arts Council for Wales through National Lottery sources. "

Thanks Hollins  :)

A very hard teaser for the weekend as I've only seen the photo recently.     What is the name of this old cottage?

Clue:-   It's not called Pentre           $walesflag$

Sorry Nemesis,  I'd have given you a few bonus points if you could have guessed it from that.   :-[

Hopefully here it is

It's a good start Yorkie but the wrong end of Llandudno I'm afraid.

You would have been able to see it from the Great Orme but the Little Orme and John's Hill were nearer.         $walesflag$

Somewhere in the Nant-y-Gamar area?

Sorry Nemesis, further east near John's Hill and the Little Orme.                 $walesflag$


Can you recognise the road?

Yes Paddy, that path is the present day Bryn Y Bia Road.   

Opposite John's Hill building  is a hollow and it's ok to walk past it in the daytime but at night it's spooky!!          $walesflag$

It's a difficult one, especially as the building is no longer there.   Can't give any easy clues because Yorkie will pounce on them like he did last time so it's making me feel a bit fiendish this weekend.                $walesflag$

I don't suppose . . . . . . . that it would be the original Bodafon School House?

I don't think the children would have been that naughty Yorkie but some who actually lived there may have been!      WWW         $walesflag$   

 But no it wasn't the original school.   

Don't forget we're looking for the original Welsh name of the property.           $walesflag$

OK - so what about Swn-y-Mor ?
