Quiz Time (General Knowledge & Out of Area)

[Hammy]

Is it St Beunos Centre, Tremeirchion?

[Hugo]

Well done Hammy it was St Beuno's in Tremeirchion .      You did really well getting the answer right with just those clues

[Hammy]

Hugo, I only recognise two long garden staircases, Chatsworth and St Buenos, but Chatsworth is not in N Wales!

[Hugo]

Good detective work there Hammy so well done.            It's so tranquil there and an ideal location for a retreat

[Hugo]

This was a popular attraction for visitors but what is it and where is it in North Wales?

[Hugo]

Another photo of this place where people have been coming to for many years but what and where is it?

[Hugo]

Perhaps a couple of photos may help to find out what it was and where was it?

Visitors started arriving here in 1847 and I wonder if this old building was once a tearoom where the visitors could enjoy a quick cup of tea?

[Hugo]

No guesses?    Yet I'm sure that most people will have gone past it as sometime

Perhaps this clue may make it easier?      It's in Conwy County somewhere.

[Hugo]

Last clue for the day and it requires some detective work but remember the clues are there!

[Hugo]

It's 400 years old and day trippers visited this place for just over 100 years.    In its heyday as many as 1000 visitors would arrive daily

So what is it and where is it?

I am struggling with this one, from the lifebelt clue I got Deganwy, possibly the old dock and railways conections ?

However I did find an interesting piece you will enjoy reading.......... The Deganwy Dock Story

Well, if the Forum's top detective is struggling with this quiz then it's time for me to reveal the answer   
The clues are there,
The photo of Llandudno's third pier on the West Shore had a short life span and was for the Paddle Steamers going to Trefriw
The old lifebelt was probably left from the Deganwy landing stage where the Paddle Steamers left for Trefriw
That old dilapidated building was the Tea Rooms where the day trippers could have a quick cuppa before returning on the ebb tide

So the answer is that I was at the old quay in Trefriw.              It's located below the wall on the opposite side to the Prince's Arms in Trefriw
You must have gone past there many times

I went to this place today with Mrs H and took this photo               Who is it and where exactly is it?
