The Trinity Square area covers the heart of Victorian Llandudno — the grid of large four and five-storey terraces and former hotels between the Great Orme tramway and the North Shore promenade.
Housing Stock in Trinity Square Area
Trinity Avenue, Clonmel Street, Caroline Street and the surrounding grid were built as private residences and guest houses from the 1860s–1890s. These large properties have complex chimney arrangements, multiple flat-cap sections, dormers, and parapet details. Many have been converted to flats or HMOs.
Weather and Local Conditions
Trinity Square occupies the middle of the isthmus — exposed to north-westerly Irish Sea weather across the promenade and to south-westerly Conwy Valley weather. Properties on the northern streets face the promenade with limited shelter. The large Victorian frontages act as wind sails in Atlantic weather events.
Common Roofing Problems in Trinity Square Area
Multi-stack chimney arrangements, original lead valley linings, parapet gutters, flat-cap sections and dormers all require specialist attention. Most common repair drivers: lead valley failure on 130+ year old Victorian leadwork, chimney repointing and re-flashing, and flat-cap replacement on bay window sections.
