A HIGHLY unusual property has come up for sale in Barmouth - and it’s poles apart from its competition!

Walter Lloyd Jones estate agents are selling a two-bedroom apartment - Flat 1 Old Bank Buildings - which contains a clue to the building’s past.

In the kitchen of this traditional property in a prime location on the high street is... a fireman’s pole!

The agents said: “Flat 1 Old Bank Buildings is a stone building under a slate roof, situated in a prime location on the high street holding a lovely historical twist.

“This traditional building used to be at the heart of the community acting as the local fire station and still retains the original fire pole.

“The former fire station has been transformed into three apartments.

“The pole used by the firefighters is still inside the building, which has also in the past housed the town council.”

The flat with an interesting past could be yours for £185,000.
