Meifod in the 50s
This photo brings back many happy memories of Meifod in the 1950's when I used to go on holidays there with my family. The white building in the centre was the bank and the photo was taken outside the Lion Inn where my grandfather used to go for his pint. Next to the bank is Liverpool House where we used to stay with Mrs Edwards and on the opposite side of the road, on the corner, was the Post Office. The only electricity in the village in those days was the street lighting which was provided by a diesel generator. Water was obtained from the stand-pipes located in the street which are still there but unused these days. My Great Aunt, Winifred Morris, used to live in Vyrnwy House up on the hill on the opposite side of the River below Broniarth Hill. She is now buried in the churchyard.
