A regeneration project by Caernarfon Harbour Trust and Galeri Caernarfon Cyf.

WHAT WILL BE ON THE SITE?

19 workspaces for local artisan/craft manufacturers and holiday lets to open in 2021.

HISTORY OF THE SITE

Evidence of the origins of Cei Llechi can be found as far back as 1611, where according to maps, it appeared to be a levelled area with a face cut into the bed-rock on the east bank of the river Seiont. Eighteenth century views of the area such as Richard Wilson’s painting Caernarfon Castle (1745) also depict various activities such as netting and boat-repair taking place in this area.

DEVELOPING THE SITE

The project’s architect is Purcell, and Grosvenor Construction Ltd of Kinmel Bay are responsible for the construction and conservation of the site.

Work on the site started in October 2018 and the initial timescale is to open the site by the end of April 2020.
