The establishment of Penmaenmawr quarry was very closely integrated with the town until relatively recently. At this point the old incline and subsequent conveyors passed behind the manager's house at Bell Yard on the way down to sea level. A derelict supporting pier survives amid the burgeoning Valerian which thrives on the old walls.
