Overview
The photographs in this book, many of them previously unpublished, have been chosen for their importance as records of social change. The collection provides an illuminating and informative history of a town that underwent rapid development during the mid-19th century. Transport systems are covered, including images of the old tram route between Llandudno and Old Colwyn, and of the longest funicular railway in Britain. Steamship photographs provide a reminder of the trips once taken around the North Wales coast, while the early years of the lifeboat service have also been uniquely captured. Nostalgic glimpses of seaside life complete this memorable guide to the area.
