: Scene of Welsh floods with damaged bridge, Aberdare


Scene of Welsh floods with damaged bridge, Aberdare

Scene of Welsh floods, with people standing near a damaged bridge in Aberdare, South Wales. Two lives were lost when the bridge collapsed due to heavy rain -- two youths, John Morgan Jones and Emmanuel Shot, were standing on the bridge when the structure collapsed, and they were carried away by the powerful current. In addition, seven houses were washed away, a number of pits forced to cease work and nearly 1000 tin plate workers were rendered idle
