Walter Road

A Memory of Swansea.

107 Walter Road,Swansea was the scene of many happy school holidays.It is still there, butis now a business address.
My Bampie and Nanny Price lived there, with Nan's mum Nanny Rees occupying the back downstairs room as a bedroom-come-sitting room,she had French doors out to the garden and the outside toilet.
Upstairs lived my Dad's sister and her husband and daughter, my Aunty Betty, Uncle Roy and Vicki. When we stayed we were delighted to be in the attic bedroom, we would call to the neighbour's children Lorraine and Angela from the open window and chatter from room to room.
Nanny Rees in her day held a stall in the market, selling chickens and butter, I think. Aunty Betty was a provvy lady so was very well known in the area.
If anyone remembers the family I would love to know, Dad is now 79 and living in Essex. His name is Francis Haydn Price, son of Francis (ICI worker) and Edna Price.
