Footnotes

Penmaenmawr – meaning ‘large stone head’ – is squeezed between the mountains and the sea in Conway Bay, North Wales. A popular resort following the arrival of the railway in the mid-nineteenth century, it was the favourite holiday destination of Mr. Gladstone, the Prime Minister, whose country home Hawarden Castle lay to the east, near Queensferry.
