[1] The station was closed in 1915, after a motor-powered lifeboat was placed at Beaumaris[2] The Anglesey Association for the Preservation of Life from Shipwreck (AAPLS) was founded by the Rev.

James and Mrs Frances Williams in 1828.They had witnessed the loss of 140 lives from the wreck of the vessel Alert in 1823, and spent the following five years raising funds and gaining support.

Landowner Sir Richard Williams-Bulkeley, 10th Baronet provided a site, and constructed a 32-foot x 10-foot stone-built boathouse, with doors at both ends to help launch in either direction, at the sound between Anglesey and Puffin Island.

A long way from the sea, the lifeboat was funded by the Settle, North Yorkshire branch of the RNLI, the boat being named Christopher Brown after their primary fundraiser.

[4] In 1914, the lifeboat station at Beaumaris was reopened, following the construction of a new boathouse and deep-water roller-slipway, to house a new motor-lifeboat, Frederick Kitchen (ON 621).
