Marine Parade, Barmouth
As tourism boomed in the late 1800s and early 1900s the need for more accommodation in Barmouth increased. One such development was Marine Parade. This was one of Barmouth’s most ambitiously scaled projects and was of symmetrical construction.
Another development on Marine Parade was the Pavilion Building. This was constructed in 1904 and housed retail premises, including a shoe shop, a news agent, a restaurant and a cinema. It was eventually demolished in the 1970s after being deemed unsafe and was replaced soon after with a more modern brick building housing an amusement arcade.
