EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the charming seaside town of Colwyn Bay, located in the historic county of Conwy, Wales, during the 1910s. The image offers a general view of the town, with its bustling waterfront and picturesque promenade. The Town, as it was then known, was a popular destination for tourists and locals alike, who came to enjoy the fresh sea air, beautiful beaches, and the stunning views of the Irish Sea. The photograph shows the promenade, lined with elegant Victorian and Edwardian buildings, many of which still stand today. The grand Colwyn Bay Hotel, a prominent feature of the town, can be seen towards the left of the image. The hotel, with its imposing facade and tall chimney, was a symbol of the town's prosperity and elegance during this period. The beach, with its golden sands and calm waters, stretches out towards the horizon, dotted with bathers and sunbathers enjoying the sunny day. The pier, a popular attraction, can be seen jutting out into the sea, inviting visitors to take a stroll and enjoy the breathtaking views. The photograph also offers a glimpse into the past, with horse-drawn carriages and bicycles being the primary modes of transportation. The town's rich history is reflected in the architecture, from the ornate details of the buildings to the intricate ironwork of the railings and balconies. This photograph is a beautiful reminder of a bygone era, capturing the essence of Colwyn Bay during the 1910s. It invites us to imagine the sights, sounds, and smells of the town during that time, and to appreciate the enduring charm of this historic Welsh seaside town.
