BFI Cardiff film from the 50's

I found the link to this on the Cardiff before Cardiff Facebook page. Really interesting to see a vintage view of the city, if a little wooden!

Nice little bit at the end about the handy airport!! Must have been sponsored by the WAG.

Nice film, as you say the airport does look a little busier than today!

I've been watching this one today: http://player.bfi.org.uk/film/watch-roa ... 1962-1962/

I think I make a guest appearance as an extra in my pram

Manchester in the 1960's does look an awful lot like Cardiff!!

Great film, thanks for sharing.

Anyone know what the Park in Llanishen they are referring to is?

I was as curious as you, so investigated it. It's Cefn Onn Park, created by The Butes.
