More about this scene
The prosperity of the North Wales coastline grew steadily during the 19th and early 20th centuries. At Penmaenmawr, this was due both to the influx of holidaymakers and to the extensive quarrying from the mountains in the background of this photograph. Large buildings, hotels and boarding houses were erected, while on the sands below bathing huts and several frames of swings may be seen to the left.
