Barry Past and Present

A new exhibition by Tom Clemett

Monday January 30^th - Sunday March 4^th 2012

Our favourite local historian Tom Clemett returns to Victoria Park with another collection of historic photographs and reminders of old Barry. This time Tom has over 130 photographs in his exhibition, many not seen before at Victoria Park. There are over 50 pictures of Butlins Holiday Camp in its heyday, which will surely be remembered as a  fun and exciting place to visit, either as a camper or as a day visitor.
