T. Lloyd the Harpist

Full-length portrait of a middle-aged man with a harp standing in front of the doorway to a stone built house. He is wearing a medal on his chest, possibly signifying a win at a local eisteddfod. This could possibly be Tom Lloyd the harpist (1848-1917) aka 'Telynor Ceiriog.'

[Tanat Valley Light Railway - cutting the sod #1]

Crowds watching the sod-cutting ceremony at Pontywaen by the Countess of Powis. Note that JPJ003 and JPJ004 are better quality images of the same event. The Montgomery County Times and Shropshire and Mid-Wales Advertiser dated 16th September 1899 gives an account of the proceedings.

[Crowd wearing rosettes outside the Plough Inn, Llanrhaeadr-ym-Mochnant]

A crowd of men, all wearing suits, bowler hats and rosettes outside the Plough Inn, Llanrhaeadr-ym-Mochnant. The licensee's name is D. Humphreys. The licensee's name appears to have been hastily added to a pre-existing sign board suggesting he only recently took the premises over. Possibly connected with a general election.
