One of my Christmas presents was a DVD "Tales of Old Whitchurch" - The
Fascinating History of Whitchurch, Rhiwbina and Heath, produced by "Video
Image" of Rumney. The DVD is excellent and I can ecomend it to anyone with
an interest in the areas concerned. I think it cost about £10 and my copy
was bought from St Mary's Church, Whitchurch. I knew that this DVD was in
production because when I was doing some research on Rhiwbina for myself, at
Rhiwbina Library, I met the chap who was doing the research for this DVD.
From the cover of the DVD it appears that they have also done two on
Rumney,
one on Splott, one on Roath and one on Grangetown. I shall be trying to get
hold of these in the future.
I have no connection with the makers or with the sales of these DVDs other
than as mentioned above.
I have not seen them advertised elsewhere so I thought list members might be
interested.
Whilst on this general subject members with Cardiff interests (and elsewhere
too) might like to know of the Geograph website, which has some excellent
photos of various parts of the UK including quite a few of Cardiff.
