PEOPLE’S COLLECTION WALES
PEOPLE’S COLLECTION WALES
People’s Collection Wales is a free website dedicated to bringing together Wales’s heritage. The Collection is full of fascinating photographs, documents, audio and video recordings and stories that link to the history, culture and people of Wales. These items have been contributed to the website not only by national institutions but also individuals, local community groups and small museums, archives and libraries across Wales. This endeavour was established in 2010. It is Welsh Government funded, and the three leading partners organisations are Amgueddfa Cymru – National Museum Wales, National Library of Wales and the Royal Commission on the Ancient and Historical Monuments of Wales. Each local authority in Wales has a small team of volunteers dedicated to collating, scanning, describing and then uploading to the website historical photographs and documents pertinent to its locality.
So far many locations of the Vale of Glamorgan are generally well represented: but as yet not so Wenvoe! These three are the only images of Wenvoe which have been uploaded to date Therefore, if you are in possession of old photographs or pictures or postcards that you would like to see preserved for posterity and shared with the world, then please loan them to Ian Moody (28 Walston Road – 20594573) or Tony Hodge (10 Walston Road – 07532 222 381) each with a note to describe them on the website: Who?, Why?, What? and When? We will look after them as if they were our own and return them safely to you. Thanks
