LOCATED to the west of Newport is the residential area of Allt-yr-yn, and here's what it looked like in the past.
Before the construction of houses, including the former Allt-yr-yn House, the area was largely made up of fields and woodland.
There are pictures of the canal and the open-air swimming baths, which operated between 1934 and the mid 1960s.
Allt-yr-yn is now home to the Newport City Council officers at the Civic Centre, which houses a staple in the Newport landscape: the clock tower.
