We are currently looking for any photographs you may have of the Old Talgarth School!? Any images would be great, new or old! School class photos, harvest festival, Eisteddfod would be perfect! Nursery School, Puddleducks, Monday Club, Youth Club, Playscheme, anything!
The Old Talgarth School is still in an incredible condition despite being abandoned and boarded up. We would hate to see it go the same way as the Mid Wales Hospital. This is an important historic building in the Town and should not be left to fall down, particularly considering that it is in such a great condition nearly 150 years later. Furthermore, with the closure of the current Talgarth Primary School, there is a question over what will happen to the site and a fear that the building could be demolished to make way for a house. We do not want to see this happen!
We have contacted CADW to get some clarity over the buildings protected status and they have asked for as many photographs from the buildings past as possible. But there are surprisingly few images publicly available of the Old School's life.
Please help us to try to save the Old School by sending us any photographs to talgarthhistory@gmail.com or message our facebook page at www.facebook.com/TalgarthHistory
