1. Title: A Glimpse into the Past: Station Road, Llanelli, 1911 Description: Step back in time with this photograph of Station Road in Llanelli, near Swansea, Carmarthenshire, England, taken in the year 1911. The black-and-white image offers a fascinating glimpse into the history and charm of this once bustling town. The photograph showcases the main road, which was the heart of Llanelli's commercial and social scene during that era. Horse-drawn carts and wagons line the road, while people can be seen going about their daily business. The Station Building, a grand Victorian structure, dominates the background, a testament to the town's importance as a transportation hub. Llanelli, located in Carmarthenshire, was a thriving industrial town in the early 20th century, with a strong focus on coal mining and steel production. The town's strategic location, near the mouth of the River Llanelli, made it an essential port for the export of coal and iron. The photograph reveals the diversity of the town's population, with people from various backgrounds and walks of life going about their day. Children play in the street, while men in work clothes head to the factories, and women in traditional Welsh dresses carry out their errands. This photograph is an invaluable record of Llanelli's rich history and the daily life of its residents over a century ago. It invites us to reflect on the town's past and the changes it has undergone over the years. Keywords: 1911, station, road, llanelli, swansea, carmarthenshire, england, history, historical.
