I think there are a few pics of the Lido on the photo gallery. It was situated in the residential  area  Deganwy Beach /Traeth Melyn.

You won't find the Lido Lorri because it was demolished many years ago which is a great shame as Llandudno did not have a bathing pool for many years afterwards.
Like Suepp said it was on the western side of Deganwy Road in  Deganwy and was demolished and the housing estate of Traeth Melyn built there.  The grounds of the Lido bounded the 12th hole of the  Maesdu Golf Club

The three lads in the photo will be older than me, but does your Dad remember the lad on the left of the photo as his face seems familiar?

Does he remember a white concrete bridge that spanned the railway line? It would have been where the housing estate is today.

We used to stand on that rainbow shaped concrete bridge as the trains went underneath and the whole bridge used to vibrate.       :o


I thought that the face was familiar but I must have been thinking of someone else as I don't know anyone called Leo. Sorry about that.
