  • Cyhoeddwyd

Ar 22 Hydref gwrthododd Llywodraeth Cymru y cais i ddymchwel pier eiconig Bae Colwyn. Am ddegawdau ar 么l ei agor yn 1900 roedd yn atyniad poblogaidd gydag ymwelwyr o bell ac agos. Ond erbyn heddiw mae 'na ddadlau ffyrnig am ei ddyfodol. Dyma i chi gip trwy luniau ar hanes yr adeilad:

On 22 October, an application to demolish Colwyn Bay pier in north Wales was refused by the Welsh Government. There's been much wrangling about the future of the iconic building which has fallen into disrepair. Here's a look in pictures at the pier over the decades:
