More about this scene
This is the second incarnation of the pub – the original was destroyed by fire in 1907. With the advent of a regular bus service in the 1920s, this popular local became a favourite stopping-off point between Cardiff and Barry. The 'harrier' of its name refers to a foxhound-like dog especially bred for hunting rabbits – a historical reminder of the sporting pursuits of the local agricultural workers.
