Waunlwyd

Just seen the photo of Park Place and couldn't resist commenting. The first shop is the post office with Dai and Lally stood out (a well liked couple). Next would be Rodgers the butchers, then Jessie Smith's the greengrocer, then Don Brake's the grocer, then a private house occupied by the Law family. Next was Manship's hairdressers and finally Mrs Warren's haberdashery, later to become Clists chip shop. I left Waunlwyd in 1965 with a lad called david Perry (Rip) to join the army, but I often think of my childhood there.......happy days.
