The original Library iin Llandudno.  ;)

Yes, the pic is circa 1880. The original library was built in 1873.

I'm going to stick my neck right out!   The "picture" looks like an artist's or architect's impression.  I think it may have been designed but never built!   :twoface:

I cannot find anything about it and I'm exhausted.  :D

The nearest I can suggest that it "might" be is the Crosville Depot in the Junction.   Z**

No, you're both incorrect.

The building was actually built, (and used) however, it seems it has escaped the attention of various local historians over the years........until now.

I have it now as the Broadway Garage, Craig-y-Don but cannot find The Broadway, apart from Mostyn Broadway!    I suspect it may  have been where LSP garage is now or at least close by, maybe on what is now the Coach Park.

No, way off the mark there.  :D

At least I'm narrowing it down!     :D

No, not the railway station or West Shore Garage.

I think some clues are in order......maybe not apparent in the artists impression, but it said Llandudno Motor Station above the main entrance and Creams on either side and also on the west side of the building.

The coach outside was probably a Creams coach.  :)

I thought Creams were based at Red Garages but you've already said that's wrong so I'm stumped
