Waun Bant Cricket

A Memory of Pontycymer.

I spent the vast bulk of my childhood in this area. The centre of the cricket pitch is a strip of concrete that was used for boys club and school's cricket matches. Mostly, a game of soccer or rugby was played either side of it too. Down the grass bank is now the "Swings" at Waun Bant. These were built in about 1968/1969. In the foreground is the rubbish tip that became Lawrence Park rugby ground in 1970 and at the top of the photo is St Theodore's Church which is now gone and a bungalow is in its place. To its right are the houses in Church Street that are now demolished. The Mem is also visible on the far right.
