I just hope that when its removed they don't dump all there rubbish in the pier pavilion site like they did when they built the new huts by Leisure Island. I did phone and ask if they planed to shift if. A very nice lady told me of course they would, but alas she must have forgotten to tell the lads, "COS IT'S STILL THERE"  :rage:

Anyone know if there is a register of the piermasters and if so, how long does it go back?

The title of Piermaster was phased out in the 1980s(?), I think. When I joined the ranks in about 1990, there was definitely no Piermaster.  The General Manager was in charge of everything and, at that time, the post was filled by a smart guy called Brendan McLoughlin. He is now the co-owner of the Cruise nightclub in Chester.

It would be interesting to know what happened to all the records/files etc of the Llandudno Pier Company, who owned the Pier from 1878 up until about 1968. I hope they weren't all dumped in a skip somewhere when Entam Leisure took over!

Is that the little room on the end of the Gents toilets? It's a maintenance storeroom, if that's the one.

Alice Cimatti had most of the theatre records so hopefully her family still has them.
