I remember bargoed like this it was a bisy town lovely memories .

[@debbiemorris7814]

It’s a shadow of its former self how amazing our town used to be!

[@thecelticdruid.6681]

It certainly used to be. I also got video of Bargoed from 11th July 1994. It's got the Cameo cinema in the background. Thank you for watching and for your very welcome comment. My sincere best wishes to you.

It's evidence- Andrew Dexter was in England in 1997, now he is here, so clearly he has a time machine! He's a Time Lord, yes, patiently travelling thru time and I won't tell everybody, Sir

Bargoed looked quite busy here, but it usually was on a Thursday, market day.

[@thecelticdruid.6681]

It certainly was busy then.

Good video

[@cjsden7703]

That’s how I remember Bargoad, it was something back then. Now it’s a dead town, changed so much it’s gone crap

[@thecelticdruid.6681]

They need to bring back the market. Reopen the Hanbury Cinema. Bring Wilkinson to the town. A band stand in the park.

@@thecelticdruid.6681 They need to do a lot to Bargoad if it even stands a chance to be the town it once was.

Its nice to see this video, please share if you have anymore

[@thecelticdruid.6681]

Thank you. I certainly have more of Bargoed, from 11th July 1994. I will upload it tomorrow.

[@thecelticdruid.6681]

Just to let you know, I've uploaded the video of Bargoed from Sunday 11th July 1994. Look out for the Cameo cinema in the background.

@@thecelticdruid.6681 thank you

[@everythinghistory6770]

How much of that has changed?

[@thecelticdruid.6681]

It's changed a bit. The road is now narrow. Shoefayer is gone and so has Kwik save at the bottom of town. The shops next to it has been demolished to make way for a bus stop and an Angel statue. Thank you so much for watching.
