Old care home on Lansdown Road, Abergavenny
Initially built in the late Victorian era or Edwardian era as a substantial town house for the very well to do of Abergavenny on what was then, the leafy outskirts above the town.
Later surrounded by 1950's council estates the building became 'an old people's home' as they used to call them, which I assume is now no longer suitable due to changing legislation and commercial pressures, so who knows its future?

Milk float, Llwynu Lane, Abergavenny
The name on the front of the vehicle is ERNIE'S THE ROCKET.
Once a common sight in many parts of the UK, these battery-powered electric vehicles for delivering milk to houses are now a rarity. One benefit of a milk float is that is a very quiet vehicle, ideal for use in residential areas during the early hours of the morning when most people are asleep.

Part of King Henry VIII School at Abergavenny
My old alma mater no less - originally a grammar school was established here in the 1950's I believe (the three-storey block on the right) which was extended in the early 1970's into a courtyard style flat-roofed concrete building out of shot, just in time to convert to a Comprehensive school system in the 1970's in time for my arrival. The main entrance to Upper School (home to senior pupils) lies ahead with the Assembly Hall to the left. The Abergavenny Leisure Centre is to the left also with the old gymnasium changing rooms to the right. Needless to say thousands of memories flood back into my mind as I look at this scene (from old school photos on the lawn bank to first kisses, recollection of old teachers, the music of the day and every square metre comes alive with a little tableau or scenario). The same for every ex-pupil I expect. We survived.
