  • 29) Blaenau Ffestiniog and District the Town of Blaenau Ffestiniog, Until
    29) Blaenau Ffestiniog and district The town of Blaenau Ffestiniog, until recently carefully avoided by tourists and neatly excluded by the National Park boundary, was the third great centre of the slate quarrying industry in Gwynedd. Indeed the town owes its existence entirely to this industry; the former rural community was centred on the old village of Llan Ffestiniog 3½ miles to the south. The earliest quarry workings were started at what became the Diphwys Casson Quarry in about 1765, and the giants of Oakeley, Llechwedd and Maenofferen were soon well established or amalgamated from several smaller concerns. Some of the quarries are still in operation whilst others have only recently closed, and only now is some attempt being made to reclaim the desolation produced by continuous indiscriminate tipping of the mountains of grey slate waste which surrounded the town. Our plan shows the locations and their railway connections……. This picture looks out southwards over the town from high up in the Oakeley Slate Quarry workings; The L&NWR station and yard is at centre left, with the GWR premises in the distance above it. Across the fore- ground run the various narrow gauge Dinas branch routes. The former main route of the Festiniog Railway is rejoined by the new deviation line, described in the previous section, in the vicinity of Tan-y-Grisiau. The old station building here is largely demolished, but the goods shed with its wagon turntables adjacent may be noted. At the north end a branch diverges to the left up an incline, whence it can be followed to the lakeside slate quarries of Cwmorthin (680465) and Conclog higher up the valley.

It is a fascinating story of cut-throat business rivalry and risk-taking when the 19th century Industrial Revolution was at its peak, but unfortunately the Conwy Valley line between Blaenau Ffestiniog and the dock at Deganwy never fulfilled the high expectations of the railway owners who built it. However, some 120 years after being built, the dock was transformed by the successive activities of two entrepreneurs into the new Deganwy Quay of the 21st century. 1 The Llandudno Branch Line A single track railway was built from Llandudno Junction on the main Chester to Holyhead line to the growing seaside resort of Llandudno by the St.

  • Llandudno Junction Regeneration Proposals for the Future
    Llandudno Junction Regeneration Proposals for the Future December 2009 Llandudno Junction - Vision Statement 1 Purpose 1.1 The purpose of this document is to describe key priorities to support the regeneration of Llandudno Junction. It will help to inform and provide the context for a programme of projects that together, will support the sustainable regeneration of the area. 2 Background 2.1 The importance of Llandudno Junction as an employment centre stems from its historic development as a major rail junction and goods handling facility. Today, the area is still considered a major strategic hub on the threshold of economic growth. There are several development commitments and plans for investment in and around the area that present new challenges and opportunities for the regeneration of the town. 2.2 Conwy County Borough Council (CCBC) and the Welsh Assembly Government (WAG), recognise the importance of Llandudno Junction with both the Council’s Corporate Plan 2008-12 and Wales Spatial Plan, highlighting a commitment to maximising the development of the area. Llandudno Junction is a key gateway and part of a central hub in North Wales. It encompasses Conwy, Llandudno and Colwyn Bay connecting North East Wales and North West Wales, and is recognised as a key regional economic driver. 2.3 To gain a better understanding of the existing and future role of Llandudno Junction, within the context of Conwy and the wider region, CCBC and the WAG commissioned a master plan to be prepared for the area, which was completed in May 2009. Stakeholder workshops and a public consultation event in 2008, helped to inform the plan and vision developed.
