I Lived In Caerau On And Off During The Period 1950 1958
A Memory of Caerau.
My mother's parents lived in Lloyd St for many years. Grandad (known by me I am told as 'dampa') was a coal miner at the pit up the hill from Lloyd St and I remember him showing me the pit ponies (recently retired as they had put a railway up to the pithead). Dampa passed away in the late 1950s from the then common "miners disease", lack of breath. I remember he had a hand bellows to help his breathing and always joked with us about sending him a tin of clean air from Portsmouth where we then lived.
