It was a very nice post office modern in style a large post office with a sorting post office at the back i used to walk past the post office to school in the morning and back home in the afternoon. To Ton boys junior school. the building on the far right was the Windsor Hotel so called Hotel which it was not the bus used to turn up next to the Windsor to Treorchy it was the Treorchy to Cardiff and back bus
That's me on the bike, my wife said it was 1963 but in fact it was 1962, early summer. At that time I was using my step-father's surname of Price. The policeman standing outside the post office was Sgt Brown.
This photo was taken in 1963, my husband was the boy on the bike. He said that it was taken on a Saturday afternoon. The chapel on the right of this view has now been demolished.
