library.wales.org: Llansamlet Library
This is a link to the library I joined at the age of five. I isn't actually the same building......when I studied the map, I can see it was moved (obviously to larger new premises) around to the next road just along from the primary school I attended. This was called Peniel Green Junior Primary School but it was decommissioned in the 60's. The library was on my route home, so if I was late home from school, my mother always knew I'd be at the library looking for the 'Little Women' series or 'Biggles'! (Mothers didn't have to worry so much about their kids in those days)
I notice that the spelling of 'Peniel' on the address of the library is now spelt 'Penial', which is probably the Welsh spelling. There was a revival of the Welsh language in the 60's so now all street signs are in dual languages as they are in Scotland and Ireland.
