Enlarge photo |  More about this photo

Further to previous postings this photograph is of Glanaman square taken from near the front of Bryn Seion chapel where the pelican crossing is now. The first shop, with awning, is now the chemists - then ran by Hubert Jones. The middle shop is Waterloo House, grocers, then ran by my grandfather Arthur Jenkins. It is now Martin Jones the Butcher. The third shop was Fuller the ironmonger and the next was shop Gwen (then a chippie I believe) but now shop y pentre. I was raised there so there is no doubt. In the distance, to the right of the photo you can see the gable end of the Co-op.
