Does anyone remember a Polish miner who lived on LLanbradach High Street for a while? He was killed down the mine in 1961. He was known as ‘Ted’.

The bathing huts will soon be winched down to the shallows so that modest ladies can paddle discreetly.
It was surrounded by its own wooded grounds, leading down to the sea at Polridmouth Bay.
It is now a series of steps leading down to the water. Out of sight and beyond the bridge to the left is the new County Hall.
From the arches of the Georgian Guildhall the camera looks down White Hart Street. The buildings on the right replace medieval market place encroachment.
This is the view down Hockerill Street towards the River Stort, where the spire of St Michael's Church rises above the trees and houses.
The old wooden hut on the bank is sliding inevitably down into the shallows, its thatched roof rotted and patched.
The Swan Inn can be seen down the road beyond the horse-drawn vehicles that are waiting for the photographer.
It replaced a Norman church that had become run down and semi-derelict. Rather than repair it, the decision was taken to rebuild.
