Here are some popular North Wales castles - I don't easily recognise yours from any of these

I've been looking at all the castles and it seem that pointed style of archway is used in the Chester area, although I can't find the exact one in the photo. Would the arch style be a distinguishing factor that might tie it to the Chester district?

Could it be city walls rather than a castle? There is a fire station next to the entrance isn't there?

Yes, it does look like a gateway to a town or "inner area" of a town. The fire hall is there at the entrance. Also seems to be a sort of plaza or turn-around area

Nearest I can get to a possible Chester location on Google so far - Chester Castle

Does it look to others,as it does to me,that there is no passageway through the arch,the shape visible below the apex being a hole in a wall beyond,i.e.it is a decorative rather than a functional arch?

It's possible I suppose, but there seems to be some sort of lamp hanging from the top of the arch, which might indicate a passageway?

LV 1600 (if that is what it is)  was issued from July 1932 to Aug. 1934 by Liverpool Counci

Is it possible that the location is somewhere closer to Liverpool? I know....the bus and all the Welsh names....but the plates on the car! Just guessing

Just looking at the arch and tower* on the far left on this image of Conwy Castle:

There are similarities.

* tower feature to right of archway, also the stonework pattern over the arch.
