Aerial view of Ynysangharad Park, 1959

 

Taken by Aerofilms in September 1959, this photograph illustrates the fusion of Victorian recreation — observe the tree-lined pathways and bandstand — and interwar sporting populism that marked Pontypridd’s Ynysangharad Park as a new form of public amenity when it first opened in the summer of 1923.    Ref: afl03_aerofilms_a78924
