A MONTH ago we launched a new online community for everyone who loves Newport. And the We Grew Up In Newport Facebook group has become a big hit with our readers, reaching nearly 1,000 members already.
Here is a selection of photographs shared on the forum by both readers and the Argus - and they have sparked many happy memories for our followers.
If you would like to join the group and share your memories and pictures of Newport find us on Facebook at We Grew Up In Newport.
