This week’s pictures from the past
Friday 9th January 2009, 8:09AM GMT.
Here we have a nice view from yesteryear of the weir at Llangollen, with the handsome bridge in the near distance, and the Royal Hotel on the left.
This is a postcard, loaned to us by Diana Humphreys, of Maesbrook, and it must be about 100 years old. On close inspection you can see some wooden supports or props against the weir.
Are they still there – or was the weir being repaired, or built even?
