Amlwch Station, 1962
The passenger service on the branch ceased in December 1964 under the Beeching cuts although the line remained open for freight traffic to the Associated Octel plant until 1993. The Birmingham RC&W diesel multiple units as seen here were typical rolling stock on the line at the time.
The station has been completely obliterated by the rebuilding of the A5025.

The Kings Head Hotel, Salem Street, Amlwch
The "head" commemorated here is that of "local boy made good" - Henry Tudor (Henry VII)- though he was born in Tenby. An austere, parsimonious and emaciated man, he stood in marked contrast to his gluttonous, spendthrift "Fat Boy" son, Henry VIII. The "Kings" dates back to the copper boom of the 18thC when Amlwch had one ale house to every four inhabitant and a countrywide reputation as the centre of every vice and iniquity.
