The Viaduct 1952
Enlarge photo |  More about this photo

I lived in number 5 Hawthorn Ave from 1957 with my brother and 2 sisters, my name then was ENID PUGH. We moved to Myrtle Grove after many years. I went to Hengoed primary school then Bargod Grammar School. I remember going dancing to the boys' club in Ystrad Mynach. I left Hengoed to go nursing. I now live in Australia with my family. I am returning to Hengoed in June this year to visit after 40 years!!

RE: RE: LIVING IN 5 Hawthorn Ave HENGOED

Dear Enid In the 1950s I lived in Bargoed and our group of lads and girls from St. Gwlady's youth club used to regularly go down to the dance at Ystrad Mynach Boy's Club....Now called Ystrad Mynach Boys and Girls Club. I am looking forward to attend the club at Ystrad tomorrow evening as it is a celebration of its 75th Anniversity. I'm going with Alwyn Edwards who used to live in Central Street. I hope that we might meet up with some of those who used to attend in our time, although, after nearly sixty years we'll be unlikely to recognise anyone other than by name. I wish that you were nearer. Best regards from Arthur. X
