The facility was established on a part of the Penrhyn Estate as an isolation hospital in 1895.

[2] After services had transferred to Ysbyty Gwynedd, it closed in 1984 but then re-opened as a mental health facility in 1988. [2] It finally closed completely in 2006 [3] and Gwynedd Council approved demolition of the deteriorating buildings in August 2019. [4]

North Wales is a region of Wales, encompassing its northernmost areas. It borders mid Wales to the south, England to the east, and the Irish Sea to the north and west. The area is highly mountainous and rural, with Snowdonia National Park and the Clwydian Range and Dee Valley, known for its mountains, waterfalls and trails, wholly within the region. Its population is concentrated in the north-east and northern coastal areas, with significant Welsh-speaking populations in its western and rural areas. North Wales is imprecisely defined, lacking any exact definition or administrative structure. It is commonly defined administratively as its six most northern principal areas, but other definitions exist, with Montgomeryshire historically considered to be part of the region.
