ONE OF Llandudno’s oldest Victorian properties has gone on the market, viewed as a “prime development” site.
Plas Gogarth, which is believed to date back to around 1858, was one of the first private residences to be built in the resort.
Since then, it has been a home to several businesses, as well as the Christian Alliance of Women and Girls in the 1910s and 1920s.
Taken over by the council in the 1950s for use as a care home, Conwy County Borough Council sold the building in 2013 amid fears for the future of the site.

A group was set up to campaign for the site’s survival, with the buyer later using it as a retreat.
It is now back on the market with estate agent Dafydd Hardy, for a guide price of £1million.
Their listing of the property states: ““This fantastic 19th Century establishment sits within extensive grounds of approximately 1.1 acres, situated between Llandudno town centre, North and West Shore coastlines.
“This site is prime for development both within the grounds as well as the building itself, which is 3 storeys and consists a number of bedrooms, kitchen and bathroom facilities.
“The property is assumed to be User Class C2.”
