Evacuees

A Memory of Upper Brynamman.

My sister and I, Margaret and Maureen Grieve, were evacuated to Brynamman. I lived with Nellie, Stanley and Menna Thomas in the then new council houses.
My sister stayed with the Pughs in Faifield House. My brothers joined us, Ken went to Station Rd and David to Mountain Rd. Mr and Mrs Mounford were our head master and mistress.
I can remember the school burning down which we evacuees shared with the Welsh children. Can still remember odd words in Welsh. Returned a few years ago, and met up with the few remaining aunties.  Would like another visit, but time is against one, too much hassle with travelling. But just wanted to say Hello. Cyru am byth.
