Old Colwyn - Colwyn Bay Heritage Group Whilst Old Colwyn, with its strong local community, began its rapid growth in the late 19th century its origins go back much further.

“Old” Colwyn acquired its designation in the 19th century to differentiate it from the new resort being developed to its west, termed for a brief while “New” Colwyn (now Colwyn Bay). #oldcolwyn #hengolwyn #colwynbaay #baecolwyn #northwales #gogleddcymru #wales #cymru #localhistory #haneslleol
