    Taff, know the area well , Heol las was my playground for a long time , As a kid and before the M4 was build we used to play around Scott's pit and the "White house" (now demolished mansion house) and the area had an assortment of old anti aircraft posts and within the grounds of the white house we often found old sections of webbing and rusted helmets , as a side note I remember when my youngest sister was born my dad and I used to visit my mum in the hospital , with me on the back of his lambretta scooter in November travelling from Birchgrove via Glais Clydach Ynystawe with me clutching on for dear life, no gloves, no helmet and no hope .

    The tunnels still exist and the dare then was to walk its length, many said they did but did they ?The railway used to go to Clydach where in Heol Las as you were leaving the village near the Birchgrove Inn there was a set of level crossing gates, all gone now .

    Interesting fact about the Birchgove Inn ( now long closed) the then landlords son fought in the Falklands and his wife was famous for flashing her boobs when baring breasts wasn't as common as it is today.
    I remember the signal box in Skewen , there used to be a prefab shed on the main road just before the garage in which contained a barber who declared loudly to all about me "he's got double crown so he's not going to follow my dad ( bald) , was he wrong

    My Dad was from Skewen and my Gran/family lived in Charles Street opposite the dog track , Tennant Park used to have the tallest slide in creation (or so it seemed when you're 7 ). I often walked from Birchgrove to visit her and cadge 2p to spend in Crescis cafe. There used to be larger roundabout at the bottom of Birchgrove by the Bowens Arms which had a corrugated sheeted shop just the other side towards Skewen with a little old women who owned it , looking back now not my proudest moment, pinching sweets :emoticon-0101-sadsm I meant to add the young lady who flashed was on the dockside when the troop ship was leaving . We used to have a relationship <whistle>

    I tried once and only once when working in Wrectum (for 4 miserable years). They thought I was having a stroke and me manager asked if everything was ok at home. Outrageous turn of events. I had feelings.
