Commercial Street in the 1930`s - Pontnewydd; You can see B. Poulton through the window on the left hand side; he was one of the local butcher's. Mr B. Williams the owner of the Carmarthen Stores lived in the first large house going down station road on the right I think. A friend gave me the picture years ago he said it used to hang in the shop.
