MORRISTON

'OLD AND NEW'

---

A SELECTION OF PHOTOGRAPHS OF OLD MORRISTON TOGETHER WITH THEIR PRESENT DAY COUNTERPARTS.

Morriston 1900

All the black/white photographs have been reproduced from Andre Scoville's 'MORRISTON'S PICTORIAL PAST' Volumes 1 & 2, who has kindly agreed to their publication. His books are available from most local book stores and newsagents.

(For a brief history of Morriston, see our Town of Morriston page. You can also get your bearings with a Map of Morriston)

Morriston is normally a busy, bustling town, but in order to get as uncluttered a view as possible of the 'Present Day' Morriston, these photographs were taken on a Sunday morning when there was less traffic around.

If you would like to see more old photographs of Morriston and it's surrounding areas like the ones on the following pages, André Scoville and myself (Jeff Lang) have joined forces to produce a book entitled 'Morriston Then & Now' which has recently been published. (April 2000) It contains over 80 old photographs, together with 80 modern day photographs taken from exactly the same location to show how things have changed over the years. If you would like to purchase a copy, click on the book which will take you to W H Smith - The Internet Bookshop where you can order a copy on-line (price £6.99). Type in 'Morriston' in the Quick Search box and it will take you to our book, which is the first in the list. Happy Reading.
