Just a snippet of information: "The clock in the quarry was given to the Penmaenmawr Granite Company in the 1930s by The Euclid Company from America, which was the company which provided the huge digger machinery for the quarry". I'm sure it was used by the quarry workers but also by us children playing on the beach and around - no excuses for being late home for meals.

On with the pics.























Thank you.

Do not meddle in the affairs of cats for they are subtle and will piss on your computer!
