Dyfed memories

Bath House

I would like a photo of the old Bath House at Neyland. If anyone has any old pictures which I could have copies from I would be grateful. garry.thomas@talk21.com Garry Thomas

School Swimming Sports

The Swimming Pool c1955

I used to live at No 6 Concrete Houses just over at the end of the wrath. I lived there for around 7 years from when I was born in 1969. It used to cost 2p to get in but sometimes we used to climb over the wall. I did swim in the pool during the summer sports. Steven Moxi and Jason Thomas were my friends from the pill.

I remember playing with my brothers and chucking the seaweed about on the beach.

SEA WALL

I'm not sure when, but my dad helped build the sea wall and a load of my family are from Hakin and Milford. Does anyone remember Rabiotti's Restaurant? It was my uncle's.

Castle Quay, Pembroke

The white dust on the water in the Pembroke photgraphs is flour from the Town Watermill. After a minor fire this lovely building was wickedly destroyed by the Council. It would be a major attraction today.

Pembroke

My grandad came from Pembroke, when my dad was a boy he used to visit there. He said he used to have to dress up tidy when going to visit  family there. His name was William Rowland Hill. He said one of his relatives done a stained glass window in a little church in Pembroke Dock but I can't remember where it was.

The Abandoned Car.

High Street c1950
Enlarge photo |  More about this photo

This photograph shows my father's car reg EDE 3 at the traffic lights in Castle Square. He was William Gywther Thomas, Divisional Highways Surveyor. The reason the car looks as if it has been abandoned was that the traffic lights had failed and father was investigating the reason at the control box on the corner of the street to the left of the photograph out of shot. The police are there to direct the traffic which was not very taxing as you can see from the volume of traffic passing through the square.
