History of Colwyn Bay 

Was educated at penrhos in the 60s, as were my brothers and father. A good experience but sad to see the town now.

I like Colwyn we go there several times a year the people are lovely and the town has a nice feel about it.

As a Scotsman, my only experience of Colwyn Bay came from passing through while driving to Bangor. It was enough to convince me that I need to come back one day.

we used to take holidays in towyn , my mates went to colwyn as it was posher, i watched the hotel 70 degrees built and was in awe of it, i never did manage to go in though, i dont think the first by-pass helped then the a55 just ruined any hope for the town. i still go whenever im around the area, i took my father on probably his last outing, he was losing his sight rapidly but for some reason he gained a lot back when i parked up at the derelict pier to watch starlings flocking. great video, thanks,

My home, my town, my pleasure & I wouldn't want to live anywhere else.

nearly 20 years on from this video and the bay has declined more and more. it's a shame because the location itself and the views are beautiful

Went there a couple of years ago, full of druggies and not safe to go out after 10 o'clock!

3.32 looks more like Pensarn to me, 1st shot looking towards Abergele & Pensarn station and the 2nd looking towards Llanddulas-that section of duel carriageway was built long before the Colwyn Bay section.

RIP Colwyn Bay

I've lived here for a good 4 years after moving from England, and I'm proud to call it home. Just a shame about the pier... :(
