It is sometimes said that the history of a town can be seen in its public houses, and indeed they are often among the oldest surviving buildings. A nostalgic look at some of the great hostelries of the capital city.

As far back as 1340 the burgesses of Cardiff employed two ale-tasters to ensure the standard of the local beer was up to scratch. One of the oldest inn sites in the city is that occupied by the Owain Glyndwr in Church Street.

Called the Mably Arms in 1731, it has since been known as the Kemys Tynte Arms, the Tennis Court and the Buccaneer, before taking its current name in the 1970s.

Cardiff's docks naturally led to a maritime feel in its taverns, as the owners sought to lure in the sailors who arrived ashore with money to spend.

From the fairly salubrious to the downright dangerous, he plots their changing fortunes as the city itself has changed over the years.

Does the job. Made a set of battery cables that look professionally manufactured using a hydraulic crimper. The heat shrink adds a nice touch.

Great value speakers for a beginner audiophile
Size: 4” Woofer
Fantastic sound quality to my ears, got these used “mint” for 179 and that was a steal, they were never even opened. They feel solid and well made, they’re heavy for the size which makes them feel of a higher quality. Very happy with my purchase
