The new look of our High Street area has inspired some comments, especially about palm trees. “Oh well, it’s something new,” I heard one lady shopper say when looking at the one shown above (TOP). Well not really, Madam. Rhyl had palm trees in other parts of town recently and long ago.
The other picture shows part of the eastern promenade in 1970s, and no doubt the history of palm trees in Rhyl goes back further than that. The large glass building, incidentally, is the Royal Floral Hall.
