Western Ave now but was once called St Athans Rd...The houses were demolished to make way for Gabalfa flyover back in the 70's It was a lovely tree lined road my grandfather had to be rehoused as he lived in one of the houses that would be demolished. |

Well spotted Gareth, looks like Birchrove Rd, leading into Heathwood Rd running from bottom left diagonally to the right, eventually leading into Rhyd-y-Penau Rd past the reservoirs. Using max magnification I think I can just make out "The Birch" pub at Caerphilly Rd / Heathwood Rd junction!! I think it's mid 30's as the house where my parents lived is visible and that was built about that time |

This is northern Cardiff, before 1939 as my old house is not visible. Most of Whitchurch is off to the left; the prominent white road is Western Avenue, joining North Road; Caerphilly Road runs off to the upper left. Llanishen reservoirs are in the distance. |
