Stepney Street (Recreated)
This is a recreation of the following 1896 picture from the Frith collection: http://www.francisfrith.com/search/wales/dyfed/llanelli/photos/llanelli_38736.htm Although taken over 110 years after the first picture, many of the buildings are immediately recognisable, with only one modern addition immediately to the picture's left. The heavy traffic is however new - though on this day, this was compounded by road works.

Llanelli Town Hall (Recreated)
This is a recreation of the following 1955 picture from the Frith collection: http://www.francisfrith.com/search/wales/dyfed/llanelli/photos/llanelli_L73057.htm There's remarkably little difference between the two photographs. The trees behind the spot the picture was taken have obviously grown, the cars are more modern and the little chair on which the lady is sitting in 1955 is no longer there.
