Llandrindod
and district
in Victorian times
The Pump House Hotel |
The old picture
postcard below of the Pump House Hotel
in Llandrindod Wells shows the huge scale of some of the hotels which were
built to meet the needs of visitors to the town. This postcard was coloured by hand from a black and white photograph, and was probably printed around 1900. The hotel was built in 1888 on the site of the farm which had the earliest pump house in the district. Part of an 1892 advertisement for the hotel is shown on the right. |

The corner of the new baths
and pump house which belonged to the hotel can be seen at the
edge of the picture on the right. This structure is the only part of the
huge building which still survives today. Back to Llandrindod picture menu
