In it’s hayday, Rhyl was the wonder of North Wales with it’s family run Funfair which has been removed for complex of flats that have not been built, outside pool, donkey rides and much more. But as you can see from the picture that I took the other day, things are not looking good for Rhyl.
I remember when the Children’s Village was first built and this was original a lovely blue fountain that rose up from the underground carpark under the village and it was very nice, but now look at it!
Not much else can be said for Rhyl, ok they are improving the coast road, but with flats and apartments, the arcades are in need of a good lick of paint and things need to be cleaned up considerably.
It is such a shame that things are going this way, but I suppose it’s the way things are.
I will be posting some more photos soon, my batteries died with shock at the above picture, so keep your eyes peeled for some more photos, some of the good looking things that can be found in Rhyl and it’s surrounding villages and some of the bad!

It does look rather sad. I guess that in a way, that’s the way things work. Stuff from the past, unless actively preserved or used, becomes overgrown and crumbles.

It’s a shame, I used to enjoy paying a visit to the little funfair! Is the Rhyl Sun Center still going?

@Chris Brandrick: The Sun Centre is still going, although it’s only open in the summer season, out of season it’s all closed up and doesn’t cater for us locals!
