Cambrian Terrace, Borth

Visitors by train to Borth walk past this splendid multi-coloured terrace on their way to the seafront. When the railway first came here in the 1860s it is reported that the local people were bitterly opposed, fearing that their village was about to change forever; they were of course right, but Borth never became more than a Victorian seaside resort in miniature, hemmed in by the sea to the west and Cors Fochno - a great bog - to the east.
