I believe the picture shows Holy Trinity Church, Pill. My mother was christened, confirmed and married there by the Rev Morgan. I was also christened by Rev Morgan and confirmed by Rev Starling. I also attended Sunday school at the church and a member of the choir. Even though we lived in Ringland, we still attended services at Holy Trinity. Some of the interior was taken to St. Stephens Church, when the church was demolished, where they remain today.

I’m sure this lovely old church was Holy Trinity Church, at the bottom end of Potter Street, Pill.

I was born not far from there, being a Pill lady.

I’m sure now it is a home for older folk, they have had lovely open days over the years.

I do love your Now and Then puzzles.

The photograph in last week's article "Now and Then" was of Holy Trinity, Pillgwenlly. My parents Ramon O'Brien and Margaret Hooper were married there on September 1, 1956. Also my brother, Philip and myself were christened at this church.

Another recent photo from around the 1970s. We are looking up Trinity Place, this short street consisted of only a handful of houses mainly occupied by dock workers, this street comes off Commercial Road. In front of the camera is Holy Trinity church in Potter Street, the church was built in 1852, the church hall was in Temple St. In Potter St was the Victoria Bakery and the Pill Picture Palace.
