Fully illustrated description of Aberystwyth’s well known, and lesser known, places that have been lost over the years.
Aberystwyth is the unofficial capital of mid-Wales. Situated on Cardigan Bay, Aberystwyth attracts many as a seaside resort and a university town as well as being a gateway to the Cambrian Mountains inland. The ruins of the castle, destroyed in the Civil War, attest to the towns importance in the Middle Ages, and with the coming of the railways in the nineteenth century which brought an influx of visitors, many hotels and grand houses were built. Many buildings and the pier were damaged or destroyed in a great storm in 1938 and postwar to recent decades Aberystwyth has witnessed many more changes.Lost Aberystwyth presents a portrait of this corner of the Wales over the last century to recent decades that has radically changed or disappeared today, showing not only industries and buildings that have gone but also people and street scenes, many popular places of entertainment and much more. This fascinating photographic history of lost Aberyswyth will appeal to all those who live in the area or know it well, as well as those who remember it from previous decades.
