 Haverfordwest, High Street c1950 (ref: h41017) |
The abandoned car.
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. Posted: 11/05/2006 12:55 by Mr D Thomas |

Year: 1943
Newgale since the 1940s A memory of Newgale, Dyfed New Added yesterday My family built a chalet in Newgale in 1943. This was in the middle of the Second World War. We had many holidays there over the years and were joined by friends on many occasions. After 33 years the chalet needed replacing and this was done in 1976. During the war, holiday workers came to the area to work on local farms and were housed in various properties in Newgale. On the Sands Cafe car park a dining building was constructed. Every week the Ministry of Information sent a film unit around to show feature films for the holiday workers, and local people were also able to see the films. There was no electricity in Newgale at the time but the film unit came with their own generator. Graham Hay Last edited: 01/12/2008 11:42 by Grahamfirst Name Haylast Name |

 Pembroke, the Castle 1890 (ref: 27959a) |
Pembroke A memory of Pembroke, Dyfed 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.

Pembroke, the Castle 1890 (ref: 27959a) |
Year: 1890s
Castle Quay, Pembroke A memory of Pembroke, Dyfed 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. Posted: 21/12/2007 14:44 by Max Sinclair |

 Narberth, Coxhill Council Estate c1955 (ref: N115043f) |
Year: 1972
Robblins Sweet shop A memory of Narberth, Dyfed I remember Mrs Robblin used to keep a sweet shop in her pantry, which you had to walk through her living room to get to. I lived in Hill Park and as children we would walk up to the top of Coxhill and her house was tucked in on the left hand side. I remember there would usually be a coal fire burning and two gentlemen sat on a sofa smoking their pipes! Years later my Aunty, Uncle and cousin lived in the very house, and it had been modernised by then. Last edited: 09/06/2008 09:45 by Philippa Price |
