An Albumen Photograph of the Hen and Chickens Inn circa 1859.

This shot is taken from what is now the Marian Car Park, looking across the Afon Wnion (river) to the Council Offices. This must have been taken around 1860-1864 as it shows the end section of the bridge (Y Bont Fawr) which was demolished to take the railway (and later the bypass). Notice the man wearing a top hat on the bridge.
