A MOMENT IN TIME
A MOMENT IN TIME
History is not just about 'old'
History is being made now in 2012
Early on the stunningly sunny morning of Sunday 27 May, crowds formed to view the Olympic torch. The first Torchbearer of the day at Bracelet Bay was 16 year old Corey Thomas.
On its passage around the United Kingdom, it visited Bracelet Bay, Mumbles Road, Newton Road and the magnificent Oystermouth Castle, followed by a ride from Oystermouth to Blackpill on the Swansea Bay Rider, following in the footsteps of the World's first passenger railway.

The torch then left Oystermouth for Blackpill on the Land Train and then onwards to Sketty. It then left Swansea, travelling via Llanelly, Burry Port, Kidwelly, Carmarthen, Haverfordwest, Fishguard, Newport, Cardigan, New Quay, en route to an overnight stop at Aberystwyth.
We are grateful to those named, who gave their permission for us to publish their photos
