Memories of Dyfed

Bath House

I would like a photo of the old Bath House at Neyland. If anyone has any old pictures which I could have copies from I would be grateful. garry.thomas@talk21.com Garry Thomas

Castle Quay, Pembroke

The white dust on the water in the Pembroke photgraphs is flour from the Town Watermill. After a minor fire this lovely building was wickedly destroyed by the Council. It would be a major attraction today.

Pembroke

My grandad came from Pembroke, when my dad was a boy he used to visit there. He said he used to have to dress up tidy when going to visit  family there. His name was William Rowland Hill. He said one of his relatives done a stained glass window in a little church in Pembroke Dock but I can't remember where it was.

From The 1950s on

I moved to Hundleton in the 1950s and spent all my childhood in and around, living at Belmont then Quiot's Hill before living for a while in Gilead, then back to River View. As the years passed my love for Freshwater West grew but due to the lack of work then I moved away and to this day regret doing so. We used to spend time at the rope swing at the top of the 'old hill,' in the woods near Monkton, biking to Fresh or Angle was never a problem. I try everytime I come home to make a trip to Fresh first on my list of thing to do, unlike Hundleton the best beach in my world hasn't changed.

I Lived And Was Born in Hundleton
