More about this scene

Narberth has seen much change since this photograph was taken, and a great deal of redevelopment has taken place. Narberth was once part of the domain of the powerful medieval Mortimer family. On the right a Corona van is being loaded for its delivery runs, while a group stand around outside the Commercial Inn and something has distracted the children outside the grocer's.

Robblins Sweet Shop
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.

Genealogy & Research Images

Despite over 20 years’ work on the archive, these scans have still not been individually checked and may prove to be damaged, faded, or not of sufficient quality to ever be offered in our full product range. However, if you would particularly like to buy one of these please get in touch quoting the Frith negative number,(s) the town name and size of print you would like to buy. On receipt of your enquiry our archivist will check the scan and advise you if the quality is good enough.

What is an Album?

An album is a way to save a selection of Frith photos, maps and memories that are of interest to you.

Creating an Album enables you to make short lists and then make a final selection from the album. In particular it makes ordering things like calendars much easier - simply create an Album of the 12 photos you like and then use the Album when placng your order - our order process will give you this option.

You can create as many Albums as you want, so perhaps make one for your hometown, where you live now, where your parents live now etc.
