Hi ..my parents spent the war years in Cardiff and became very friendly with Arthur and Dalcy Craddock(i think thats the spelling ) who lived in Ivy cottage in Tongwinlais . we last visited in 1967 when they were still living there . I will be visiting Cardiff on a family reminisce in early January 2016 …Is the cottage still there ..would love to visit and meet any Craddock family still around .
The cottage is still there, their Son Michael still lives in the village
Does anybody know how to geT in touch with Stephen Douglas? I have tried from his website by the link there is dead.
why not try to gather all those pictures and set up a permanent exhibition in The Tanyard that could be seen by tourists that come to visit Castle Coch?
