Llandrindod
and district
in Victorian times
High Street, Llandrindod Wells |
The photograph
below shows High Street, Llandrindod
Wells, and it was probably taken around 1900
at the end of the Victorian years. The attractive building nearest the camera is 'Clovelly', which still survives much the same but sadly the shops are now boarded up. The decorative balcony and wrought iron pillars were typical Victorian features of many buildings in the town. An example of the elaborate ironwork still to be found in Llandrindod Wells is shown in the small picture on the right. |
High
Street,
Llandrindod Wells, around 1900 |
The High Street was originally the
most important area of the town, being close to the railway
station. In this view the railway line is just out of the picture
to the right, and the station is also further down High Street to the
right. Back to Llandrindod picture menu
