Description
?The Vale of Conway Creamery, Mochdre . . . with its modern layout of pasteurising plant and bottle washing and filling machines, together with the usual facilities for handling the milk from a hundred and thirty producers.?
Source: uncertain but believed to be the International Journal of Dairy Technology, date not known, describing the `Welsh Section Trip? to north Wales on Friday 9th July 1948.
Maps and plans (ref. 21/2/7/5/1, circa 1950) of the Conway Valley Creameries Ltd. site in Station Road, Mochdre, are held by the Conwy Archive Service.
The creamery probably dates from the 1940s and was still in operation in 1974, as shown on large scale Ordnance Survey mapping. The site is currently occupied by an industrial estate, but how much of the creamery buildings and structures remain is not known.
