Nostalgic memories of Oxwich's local history

Share your own memories of Oxwich and read what others have said

For many years now, we've been inviting visitors to our web site to add their own memories to share their experiences of life as it was when the photographs in our archive were taken. From brief one-liners explaining a little bit more about the image depicted, to great, in-depth accounts of a childhood when things were rather different than today (and everything inbetween!). We've had many contributors recognising themselves or loved ones in our photographs.

Why not add your memory today and become part of our Memories Community to help others in the future delve back into their past.

Mrs Cobb from Bedford would bring children for a weeks holiday during the summer holidays. They stayed in a large white building on a corner (there was a dairy farm across the road), it was like a community hall, maybe it was used by the Brownies or something! It was walking distance to the beach. They would walk along a long lane down to the beach. I am not 100% sure of the details but if anyone has any memories of this or information I would be grateful, thanks.
My Aunty Evelyn ran the post office in Oxwich for many years. There was a huge orchard attached to the post office. Upon retirement, she had the bungalow built next door and lived there until her death. As a young boy, I lived in the coastguard cottages nearby, before my father Frank Bevan, was posted to Flamborough Head in the Coastguard service.
