I was in the Indian just down the road.
I’m not sure what houses were demolished I can’t recall any being demolished.

Cheers Dar, its just in the painting, it shows houses, where the car parks (the open land) are now, and on the land where the Cinnamon Indian is.

Do you have an Indian every Sunday. Which is the best in your opinion ?

From

Nosey barsteward.

I have nothing to add to this thread regarding demolished houses. Sorry. Remos is tidy though.

You used to recommend the one just outside Mumbles. It was ok but not brilliant.

The buildings on that land were the Afan Lido and Sportsman pub.

Aye, learnt to swim in the lido, back in the day. I remember the sportsman. I've jumped on the web, but cant see any photos. It's a puzzle. If your in Remos, have a look at the picture.

You’re not talking about the bottom end where the Jersey Beach Hotel was are you?

Fantastic beach there and love walking west nearly to the point where the M4 bridge goes over. As good, if not better than Swansea Bay.

My oldest son lives in Baglan so often take a stroll before a home game.

We are so lucky to have such fabulous beaches.

Yeah could be, i remember down the fair end, there was an amusement arcade and other shops in a row.
Maybe my mind is playing tricks with me. I've found this though

Went down Aberavon beach for a stroll in the fog yesterday morning. The other half dressed the bloody dog up in his christmas jumper! He looked a right sledge!!
