Ddisgrifiad / Description | The plague of 1607 broke out in Conwy shortly after it swept through London and it was said to have been carried by travellers. It brought great desolation, there was no time to dig individual graves in the churchyard and corpses had to be buried in the streets. Most of them were put under soil in what became known as Burial Street, now Berry Street, once a cul-de-sac and now part of the A55.
