Penmaenmawr is afforded deep shade by the high, steep hills to the south, so the sun does not shine in Winter. Brilliant illumination in Conwy Bay gives good contrast against the chimneys of nearby terraces, while the Great Orme appears to float in the sky which is reflected in the still sea. The road leads up to the quarry's weighbridge.
