I think this picture is around the mid 1930's . We live in a house in the road at the top of the picture where houses are being constructed by a builder called Griffiths, He has the reputation of introducing red brick in to the town a material he used when working in the SE of England ( we are told). Most houses in Pembrokeshire were built with stone or blocks. |
