Growing Up
How wonderful to find this web site. I am the second generation of my family to be born, brought up and still live in Porthcawl. I consider myself very lucky to live here and fully appreciate both the seaside and the country which is easily and quickly accessible. Porthcawl is a great place to live it retains much of the community spirit I remember from childhood. I can still walk down John Street and meet local people I grew up with.

I knew a family of Packwoods in Porthcawl, they were greengrocers, is this the same family? I went to school with some Packwoods, Porthcawl Senior School. I lived on Mackworth Road.
