The Lynch And St Gildas Convent

The year I was born and lived at 1 Lymn Villas the Lynch until 1958. My father was Town Clerk since the mid 1930s and I was amazed to hear that Langmore Gardens slid into the sea but the Marine Theatre is still going and Google Earth shows the groyns removed for new sea defences! My dad's friend was Mrs Staples of Coram Towers, the Town Mill was derelict then, but Middle Mill still had its wheel. I remember the Woodmead Halls and the Monmouth Hotel and the Alexandra Hotel which I often see in films. I walked up Sherborne Lane every day to the Convent and Clappentail Lane was one of the first Roman Roads in England. I now live in Milford Haven but must return one day.
