Examples of ABGS photos to be found in the Rhondda-Cynon-Taf Libraries Photo Archive

At the beginning of 2008, the RCT photo archive was re-launched in a new format. The images below together with
a very large number of others can be found on the RCT site. Once on the RCT site, use the Search Box to obtain
a 'gallery' of your selected photos. Click one of the thumbnails, then select "larger image".
The quality of these final images images is most impressive.
