Old Photographs of Holyhead
I hope you will enjoy these several pages of high-resolution old photographs of Holyhead, with photos from the 1900s right through to the 1950s and 1960s. They will remind you – or inform you – of the buildings like St Seiriol’s Church and the Station Hotel that are now sadly demolished. There are photographs of Holyhead’s ships and ferries where your fathers, grandfathers, and even great grandfathers have sailed and worked.
