It's a no to both suggestions, sorry. A very good clue would be that the two trees seen in the photo are still there today....  ;)

Nothing to do with trees I know,  but it has something of a mortuary feel about it.  ?{}?

Yes, it was Llandudno's first Public Library! Looks a little different today but those same trees are still there:

It is within the confines of the Forum's boundaries - Llandudno, Conwy and Colwyn Bay.     ZXZ

More clues later (tomorrow).    )*)&

Not quite correct.  Actually the Official opening of the new pavilion in 1960.  The Guest was the Duke of Gloucester on the right of the microphone.  Thought I might get you with that one!     D)

I had to think about it. I looked at the style of the building and thoughts it was 60s sports, then took it from there.

What are you doing with that golf ball in your possession? Dont you realise that pocketing golf balls deprives us golf club owners out of a pint of beer---we have to settle for a half  LOL

Mike, I kept meaning to show you that ball at your golf course, but after moving in to our new home, time went so fast!, I'll try again next year!  D)
