LLAIS NEWSPAPER
In April 2007 our Society successfully was awarded a Heritage Lottery Grant to have the local newspaper put on to microfilm. This meant that for the first time a complete run of the newspaper which started in 1898 and ended in 1971 could be seen in one place. We now hold all the films from 1898 - 1971 (1937 & 38) these are avaiable at Ystradgynlais Library. Due to the anticipated demand for the latter films it is advisable that you book a time slot in order to make sure that the machine is available.
Further details about accessing the facility can be found at
For those who are unable to use the facility we can offer a postal service for articles as there is now an index from 1898 - 1929 we can do look ups for these years, for articles that fall from 1929 - 1971 a date must be known.
£1 per article
An A4 print out of the page will be supplied along with a second A4 copy of the enlarged article. In other words you will get two A4 copies.
