Black Boy Hotel, Newtown
The hotel on the left is at 31 Broad Street. The black boy in the name of the hotel may be a reference to King Charles II. During the years when England was a republic (the Commonwealth of 1649-1660), Charles was in exile on the continent of Europe. During this period, Royalists were persecuted and the royal toast was forbidden. Charles had a swarthy complexion, so supporters of the Crown would drink to the health of The Black Boy Across The Water.
Next door is the Farmers Union of Wales office.

Black Boy Hotel
Not a p.c. name for a hotel these days. The sign shows a sweep. This hotel dates from the 17th century and stands on Broad Street.
