This very unusual memorial to mark Queen Victoria’s Golden Jubilee is currently located on Fernbrook Road, opposite the Natwest bank in Penmaenmawr.
There is a bi-lingual notice next to the barometer which states that it was moved from its original position in 1903 after being damaged by a horse-drawn wagon.
The barometer was renovated in 2008 under the Penmaenmawr Townscape Heritage Initiative by Alan Teagle.
The canopy of the structure has the inscription ' 1887 THE JUBILEE BAROMETER '.
