thanks for the reply,
As I have recently made a trip to llanrwst ,to Scotland street etc,and went down the Penmachno valley,re a house my family lived in,
I am painting a picture, and I wanted to include the coat of arms in the picture----
It contains chapels,grave stones,slates and lovely scenery.
I cannot seem to find a picture of the flag or coat of arms.
they did not seem to be on the site.
It would be nice to be featured on theis website.
hope i can find it soon!!
Thanks

Oh a shame you can't find what you're looking for. I did have a bit of a google search and couldn't see anything online. All I can think is that perhaps you could contact a library in the area who may be able to assist you. Good luck with your painting - Llanrwst looks like a lovely place!

thanks for your help,that is a good idea,I will do that.
I also hope to go up again and do more painting.
thanks

There is a book 'LLanrwst : the history of a market town' by Norman Tucker  isbn 1 84306 070 1 I bought this when I was there a couple of years ago, although it doesn't show a coat of arms.

Below is a photo of the Eagle Hotel

thanks,yes I have bought that book ,but as you say there is no coat of Arms in it which is a surprise.

I will enlarge your picture to see if the coat of Arms is under the Eagle.
