Rear of Telephone Exchange, Port Talbot
Taken from a parking area off Oakwood Lane, this photo shows the back of the town's telephone exchange in Eagle Street. The section on the right is the original building which would appear to date from the early 1960s or thereabouts, whilst the extension on the left of the photo would have been added later, possibly to cater for additional telephone traffic.

Port Talbot (Central) railway station (site), Glamorgan
Opened in 1898 by the Port Talbot Railway & Docks Company, later part of the Great Western Railway, on the line from here to Pontyrhyl, this station closed to passengers in 1933 and the site was redeveloped.
View south across the forecourt towards the buffers. The single platform was roughly where the line of houses now is.
