The new hotel and railway terminus at Holyhead, [Wales], 1880. The London and North-Western Railway '... company have built an hotel [to be called the Prince of Wales's Hotel,] replete with every comfort, commanding a fine view of the harbour and bay, where travellers may bide their time for fine weather, rest after a voyage, or sojourn for a day or two. The breakwater affords a superb promenade upon it, stretching a mile and a half into the sea. The visitor to Holyhead, if he has time to stay, may enjoy an excursion along the coast to the famous "South Stack," and the neighbourhood has other attractions of marine scenery'. From "Illustrated London News", 1880.
