More about this scene

This village, on the A4055 between Penarth and Barry, is so small that it could be easily overlooked. Station Road looks a tidy place: the hedges are well trimmed and the roadway is clean. Each of the houses shows a differing style, with dormers, gables and bow windows. Beyond the third house is a sign bearing the word 'Teas' - an indication that this is a seaside spot.

Sully Hospital
i was a patient in Sully hospital in 1953 aged 6yrs when it was a TB isolation hospital. I had a lobectomy and spent 9 months there and was there during the Coronation and it was the first time I saw a television set. Now I am a very fit 68 yr old and I owe my life to the surgeon and staff who operated on me! Carol Johnston

I Starting Nursing...
I started work as a nursing assistant at Sully Hospital on November 11 1974. I later went on to undertake nurse training in 1977. I returned to work at Sully for a couple of years in the early 1980s. I am now a District Nursing sister based in Ely Cardiff.

Hanging In Sully During Second World War
My mother Edith Templeman as a child seems to remember two black soldiers being hung for the rape of a local church organist during the Second World War, does anyone know if this was true?

Genealogy & Research Images

Despite over 20 years’ work on the archive, these scans have still not been individually checked and may prove to be damaged, faded, or not of sufficient quality to ever be offered in our full product range. However, if you would particularly like to buy one of these please get in touch quoting the Frith negative number,(s) the town name and size of print you would like to buy. On receipt of your enquiry our archivist will check the scan and advise you if the quality is good enough.

What is an Album?

An album is a way to save a selection of Frith photos, maps and memories that are of interest to you.

Creating an Album enables you to make short lists and then make a final selection from the album. In particular it makes ordering things like calendars much easier - simply create an Album of the 12 photos you like and then use the Album when placng your order - our order process will give you this option.

You can create as many Albums as you want, so perhaps make one for your hometown, where you live now, where your parents live now etc.
