Neath, Orchard Street And Gwyn Hall c.1950

More about this scene
The Gwyn Hall, on the left, was built in 1887. The land was donated by Hywel Gwyn, and a statue of him was unveiled outside a year later. The building was used for Council business as well as a music hall until the construction of the Civic Centre in the 1960s. In 1967 the statue was moved to allow a road widening that did not materialise, and in this photograph it points to the building opposite, Gwyn's birthplace, which was demolished in the 1960s to make way for Woolworths.
