Visiting Colwyn Bay for over 70 years I still retain friends there from the 1950/60's. This last two weeks we have been comparing notes about the radio 'shack' in the top orchard at Pen-y-Groesffordd
Riding Stables which was owned by Mr and Mrs Eddie Thomas. Her brother, Norman ,was a renowned sheep dog breeder and trainer and lived at the bottom of Groes Road directly opposite the main gates to Eirias Park. According to my friends the radio equipment was owned by Norman rather than Eddie or his sons Glyn and Ken, but we are uncertain whether he was a coast watcher or just an enthusiastic radio ham. This information seems to tie in with the notes following but I am not certain it helps the enquiry.
