North Western

These contrastingly styled buildings in Mostyn Street (all built c1897) stand opposite the North Western gardens, which is a small but attractive triangular shaped pedestrianized open space at the junction of Mostyn Street and Vaughan Street. The gardens take their name from the North Western Hotel (now called the Tudno Castle Hotel) and are renowned for most attractive fully restored underground public toilets now equipped with an electric lift for disabled users.
