St David's is the RC Church much nearer to the commercial heart of Swansea and the
docks, in Rutland Street. It was listed in the 1851 guide to Swansea. I suspect that St.
Joseph's, now a Cathedral, was rather later.
http://www.stdavidspriory.org.uk/guide.htm is a historical description of St. David's.
The present building dates from 1847.
There is a book about Greenhill available for sale at West Glamorgan Archives, as well as
on the shelves.
