More about this scene
Rose Cottage, one of three cottages built for farm workers, is the foremost cottage in this photo. The stone stiles, which were used to keep farm animals being driven from Castle Farm from entering the cottages' gardens, have long since gone. In the front garden we can see what must be one of the first greenhouses ever built in Barry.

Hello, I am researching for a book about footballers who played for Tottenham Hotspurs in the thirties. I am particularly interested in Albert Hall who I believe was born in Cadoxton, Barry in 1918. I would like to get in touch with anyone who know stories about him or even any relations who would be willing to talk to me. I have information that he was held prisoner by the Japanese when Singapore fell . With thanks John
