The Three Nights' Blitz of Swansea, 19-21 February 1941

There is no film footage of the Three Nights' Blitz, so to tell the story of those three terrible nights, we have made this film from contemporary photographs held at West Glamorgan Archive Service.

One of my friends told me how he lost his dad and brother in this blitz of Swansea 😢

Some very recognisable places here and it's the 80th anniversary in a few days, in fact. But we are still living with some of that awful 1950s architecture, sadly.

My late mother would tell us kids all about the blitz , she was only 12. With 5 brothers to take care of.
