This small tollhouse located at the entrance of St George's Pier in Menai Bridge was used to collect fares for passage on the many boats which operated from the pier.

The building was restored by the local civic society for the Millennium celebrations in the town.

A bilingual plaque above the entrance of the tollhouse reads:

ADFERWYD TOLLDY'R PIER GAN GYMDEITHAS TREFTADAETH
BRO PORTHAETHWY
AC AIL AGORWYD YM MEHEFIN 2000 I DDATHLU'R MILENIWM

THE PIER GATE HOUSE WAS RESTORED BY THE MENAI BRIDGE AND DISTRICT CIVIC SOCIETY
AND RE-OPENED IN JUNE 2000 FOR THE MILLENNIUM CELEBRATIONS

During the summer tourist season the building is used to sell artisan ice cream.
