WORK TO restore Llandudno Pier continues as the landmark undergoes "invaluable" maintenance work.

The panels and boards towards the deck of the pier have been replaced, having been sent off to be delicately restored.

The panels were fixed back in their rightful place.

Llandudno Pier has undergone maintenance work since last year, with the Happy Valley entrance and the foundations of the pier also being renovated.

Owned and operated by Tir Prince Leisure Group, the Grade II listed Victorian pier is the longest in Wales (at around 700 metres) and was first opened in 1877.

It recently came second in the annual UK Pier of the Year awards, coming narrowly close to first place behind Cromer Pier.

A spokesperson for Llandudno Pier said: "The invaluable maintenance work continues with the restoration of the panels and boards towards the Pier Deck.

"These have all been replaced, sent off to be delicately restored, and fixed back in situ."
