Jacko, just a thought, I wonder if it could be Castell at the top of Nant y Gamar.  The gate looks similar to one I have seen up there.

Jacko, Rhyl had a very long and interesting Pier.  As did Rhos and many other towns.

You can read about them in this book... I have a copy, its great.

Rumour has it that there was once even a Pier at Colwyn Bay ...  :laugh: :laugh:
