THIS week’s Nostalgia takes a look at old pictures of Rhyl streets.

With a number of Grade II-listed buildings, the seaside resort town has long been a popular place for business and entertainment.

Some landmarks include the Parish Church of St Thomas, the old Midland Bank building, the railway station, Rhyl Town Hall, the Sussex Street Baptist Church and the war memorial.

The streets that have helped shape the town include the High Street, Wellington Road, the Parade, Abbey Street and Water Street.

These promenades were once the busiest parts of town, with the High Street remaining a draw for crowds in the centre.

The avenues of Rhyl lead to other landmarks such as the Rhyl Pavilion, the Foryd Harbour Bridge and the former Sky Tower, which closed in 2010 to become a beacon.

With once-popular businesses like William Roberts, W Davies and Thorley’s once features of these streets, they are filled with history.
