Description

The rugbypitch in Pontypool Park was laid out in 1925 for cricket as well as rugby. This large, flat space soon became the site for many events - from carnivals and fates to Royal visits, and in this instance, a military parade!
It is not clear when this picture was taken - it may have been a Home Guard parade during WW2, although by thenumber of onlookers, it is more likely to have been a special parade after the war.
