Tales from the Riverbank

It's 58 years to the day since a group of intrepid militants, presumably from the Welsh Republican Movement although no-one was ever convicted, exploded a bomb on that little seen Radnorshire landmark, the Fron aqueduct (see postcard view of its construction.)

A couple of days later the Queen opened the Claerwen reservoir. Somewhere or other I've got some newspaper clippings of your blogger waving the Union Jack outside the W. H. Smith shop in Llandod's Station Crescent. If they turn-up I'll post them!
