Three famous sons of Rhyl have been immortalised in an artwork at the entrance to Rhyl’s Pont y Ddraig bridge. The portraits were chosen following a public consultation in the Rhyl and Kinmel Bay areas where people could put forward their nominations. They are:

Rhyl FC’s Don Spendlove, who bagged a record of 629 goals during the 1940s and 50s.

Sir John Houghton, the Nobel prize winning climate scientist.

Musician Mike Peters, lead singer of The Alarm and founder of the world’s leading rock and roll cancer foundation Love Hope.
