Festival of Britain Tea Party, Glasfryn, 1951

10/10/2014

0 Comments

 
The Festival of Britain was a national exhibition held throughout the UK in the summer of 1951. It was organised by the government to give Britons a feeling of recovery in the aftermath of war and to promote the British contribution to science, technology, industrial design, architecture and the arts. The Festival's centrepiece was in London, but Festival celebrations took place around the country, including Cardiff, with further smaller scale local events such as this street party in Glasfryn.
