Allt-y-Graig
(1929 - 1930 )


Allt-y-Graig opened on February 1 1929 on the Prestatyn to Dyserth line. It consisted of a simple, short low-level platform on the east side of the line. A sloping footpath and steps led up from the road

One of the main sources of passenger traffic was tourists who travelled to Allt-y-Graig to view the Cwm waterfalls and a ruined castle

By the time that Allt-y-Graig opened, the railway had lost passengers to a local motor bus service

After being open for less than 2 years the station was closed when the LMS withdrew all passenger services from the line on September 22 1930

The line reverted to being purely a freight route, and stone trains continued to pass through the site of Allt-y-Graig regularly until September 1973 and the track was lifted in 1980
