Demolition of The Vetch Field football ground
Redevelopment work has finally started on the Vetch, the home of football in Swansea from its opening in 1912 to its closure in 2005 when football activity moved to the Liberty stadium. Today, the grandstands that once resounded to cheers are now succumbing to the grinding and banging of the demolishing machines.

Fallen silent
The derelict grandstand at the Vetch Field, the home of Swansea City since 1912, abandoned in 2005 and replaced by the Liberty Stadium in Landore.
There are plans to develop the site with more shops and a leisure centre but this does not seem to have started yet.

Swansea bus station
The rebuilt bus station reopened in December 2010. It adjoins the Quadrant Shopping Centre.
Swansea Council modernised the station with funding from the Welsh European Funding Office. During the station's 18 month closure for the rebuild, passengers used various temporary bus stops in the city centre. Here's http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/2212260 how the bus station looked in 1979.
