Nostalgic memories of St Asaph's local history

Share your own memories of St Asaph and read what others have said

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.

Why not add your memory today and become part of our Memories Community to help others in the future delve back into their past.

Add a Memory!

It's easy to add your own memories and reconnect with your shared local history. Search for your favourite places and look for the 'Add Your Memory' buttons to begin

Bridge Over The Elwy
My name is Dennis Shatford, once known as Dennis Roberts, as lads we used to sit on the Elwy bridge so we could watch the minor accidents that would happen because the drivers couldn't see the Halt sign by the old deanery. I remember PC Morris chasing me for scrumping apples from the deanery gardens. I was brought up in Llwyn Elwy. There were such a lot of characters around then. I should add I was born in 1944 and left Llan 1962/3.

Coming Home From China
Elias and Polly Owen came home from Shanghaiand lived at No 3 Elwy Viewand Iwas able to aquaint myself with all my St. Asaph family and see them for the first time, she only lived a few months and then Elias packed up and went off to Australia, but I remember it well, I had three families there, my mother was from the Palace Lodge, the Halleys in Central Buildings and the Owens from the Red Lion,so between them all family history became alive to a child from Brynymaen.
