Oh wow! The hand-cranked merry go round!

My dad would have been 6. I loved the park when I was a kid and my kids love the park. Lost my dad a couple of years ago. Hope all these children had a wonderful life. I still think that was the best era to live in.

Lovely to watch. Very atmospheric. How tame the Park seems today by comparison, although it is still a magical place.

My parent took me there - we caught a tram opposite the Capital Cinema down Newport Road turned up City Road ended at the bottom gate to Roath park where the trams would turn around ready to go back into town The seat on the trams where made of wooden slates.

My parents would have been 15 at the time, and my father lived not far in Crwys Road.

My mother was 7 at the time this was filmed. Who knows, she could have been there that day.x

That slide @ 3:00 wouldn't be the one that's now in the kids playground near the lighthouse is it?

Happy days I bet they look good

Was it 1947 or 1948? Surprised there's no bomb damage visible, Cardiff was so badly bombed even the parks got hit
