Pwllheli
« on: Thursday 26 April 18 16:21 BST (UK) »
Hi,

I am looking for a couple of industrial sites in or around Pwllheli circa 1928 for both my great grandfathers, One is on a marriage certificate as a fireman in the gasworks and the other worked in a oilcake factory, Also in 1928 thru to 1933 my grandfather was shown as a Automobile Association Road Scout, would that be a motorcycle or a pushbike ? and would there have been an AA  headquarters ? I hope this is not too many questions to ask all in one go.

Best Regards.

The gasworks was immediately opposite the railway station.
