Great wall of West Shore

HEIGHT OF NEW SEA DEFENCE WALL MOCKED

- By OWEN HUGHES

FLOOD defence work at a Llandudno beach is nearing completion - but one element of the scheme is being mocked online.

Conwy council secured funding from the Welsh Government - alongside its own capital funds - to carry out multimillion-pound improvements to flood defences at the seaside resort.

The town juts out on the Creuddyn peninsula and its position with the sea on two sides has seen the resort flood previously.

This saw defence work get under way last year - starting on West Shore, followed by commencement on the North Shore prom.

The project on the West Shore is now almost finished and people are highlighting the underwhelming element of part the latest additions.

A new wall extension has been built that has been dubbed 'The Great Wall of West Shore'.
