OVER the years, towns, cities and villages change a lot, whether there are complete revamps or just changes to the fronts of buildings.
The main change we see is usually new shops replacing old, but occasionally we also see completely new buildings in place of old ones. Although sometimes, things never seem to change.
Here we take a look at how much (or little) has changed in Llandovery between the 1900s and 2022, by looking at some key areas in the town on Google’s Street View and comparing them to some of our archive photos.
We can see that The Castle Hotel pub has changed its exterior over the las century, including the addition outdoor seating(and thankfully is not flooded), the main change for King Road is the shop fronts, with different businesses and a colour change, and for New Road, you can see the difference in transport and a bit of colour!
