Photo 001

We were sent this picture by an ex-resident of Caerleon - in their own words a "Caerleonite ex-pat." It shows workers at the Caerleon Works. Interestingly it seems to have been taken the same time as other photos we have collected together from several different sources.

It would be rewarding to put names to the faces in these photos and if you can help please email us. We are off to a good start with this photo - several of the workers have been identified. On the left, wearing a trilby and smoking a pipe, is foreman Gilbert Stamp. Three of his sons are here: on the right with his hands on a shovel is John Stamp and bottom right is Bill Stamp. The tall figure with hand in pocket is 'Sholto Wallen'. Others are thought to include: Bryn Stamp, Hubert or Stan Davies, ? Vickery and ? Bergum.

You can browse through this series of photos by using the left and right arrows at the foot of the page. Hopefully the few names we already know may help jog memories and with your help we can fill in other pieces of this jigsaw puzzle...
