Description
Album of photographs and other related material collected by David Leonard Jones that traces the history of the Carmarthen Bay Power Station, Burry Port over a span of 44 years; from its founding to its demolition (1947-1991).
David Leonard Jones (1934-1999), born in Pembrey, moved to Kidwelly in 1959 after marrying Ann and started work at the station soon after. His keen interest in photography led him to document the life of the power station – its history, operation and the people.
