Crown and Anchor, Pembroke Dock

[lambkin]

Anyone want a photo of Front Street I can always nip and get it for you. Except for the cars and a lack of boats there is little difference there now than it was early 20th century.
From my research be carefull, street house numbers and names in P.D. at least went through at least 2 complete changes that I am aware of and that includes Front Street. So what is 17 and 19 Front Street now where different pre 1900 and probably different pre 1880's.
Front Street the very 1st Street of the new town of Paterchurch Dock begun in 1814, 3 years later officially desginated under its new name as the town of 'Pembroke Dock', was a lot shorter street than you see today.
I do have a small collection of old postcards of early P.D. and Pembroke streets.
There is no picture in Keiths book of the Pub only written reference.
Hope this helps

And it would be nice if they either changed it back again or thought of something else.

Hi Orielbenfro, if your in that area a photo would be great, no rush.

I have little or no photos of my Grandfathers extended family and have decided to  get pics of places that they may have lived. (amongst all my other lists of things to do -- when I'm not at work!!) I try the will try the library too!

...............to  get pics of places that they may have lived...............

I have travelled far and wide obtaining just the same from humble cottages to the still standing Farm Baliffs House on Caldey. Having met strands of the Oriel's that never realised there relations to others, I now have two large volumes of related photographs & 4 very full volumes of related documents.
I will nip down on a decent day and obtain a series of photo's for you of Front Street.
I note that Edward and Jane Elizabeth Hudman are buried at Llanion, would you like me to obtain photo's of their headstones if such things still survive.
Edward was buried in 1939 and Jane 1955, also I have newspaper research to carry out in both years to can try and find their obits but only if you want them.
