Re Donkey Path

My memory of the donkey path on the promenade. I used to walk from Old Colwyn to Rhos on Sea nearly every sunny day during the summer school holidays. They were the best Swimming Baths I have ever swum in, at Rhos. The donkey path ran alongside the prom, below the railway embankment. Primroses blessed the grassy banks in the spring. The path meandered through trees , it was wonderful. Fond memories of my wonderful childhood.

Yes, the donkey path ran from opposite the Marine Hotel down to the prom passing Glan y don fields where we used to have 5-aside competitions in the 70's, until it made way for the A55 bypass.
