Life At Corwen

A Memory of Corwen.

I have lived here all of my 65 years and can't imagine living elsewhere unless fate dictates otherwise. Corwen had reached rock bottom at one stage, but,as they say - the only way is up! Hopefully, I will live to see the railway back here, I had two uncles working on the railway here in the 1950s up to the Beeching axe in the mid 1960a - the late HARRY GRAVES, booking clerk, and the late FRANKIE DAVIES, on track maintenance, and many may recall them as renowned sportsmen, namely football and cricket. Corwen need not be a dying town, that can only happen if we allow it. Before the railway returns, the young as well as us older ones will hopefully welcome visitors here, I like to act as unofficial guide to show what the area has to offer such as walks, etc. If this is done without alienating or encroaching on visitors who look lost there is every chance they may visit again, so, fellow Corwenites, LET'S MAKE THINGS HAPPEN - WATCH THIS SPACE, FOLKS!

I`m interested in the station masters house during the war. A Miss Edna Jones lived there and had numerous evacuees residing with her.
