For many years now, we've been inviting visitors to our web site to add their own memories to share their experiences of life as it was when the photographs in our archive were taken. From brief one-liners explaining a little bit more about the image depicted, to great, in-depth accounts of a childhood when things were rather different than today (and everything inbetween!). We've had many contributors recognising themselves or loved ones in our photographs.

I lived in Rhosneigr from the age of 6 to 12 and I absolutely loved it. I have some wonderful memories of some great people that I would love to hear from. I now live just outside Wrexham so if you want to get in touch with me email me here and I'll get back to you.
Many many many, great holidays here. A very nice village. Sadly this place has now been knocked down and replaced with houses.
