200+ Black & White Photographs

A long-awaited companion to Newport, West of the River, this journey travels around the east side of the River Usk in Newport, South Wales.

Complied from the photographic collection held at Newport Museum and Art Gallery, the vibrant history of the town is evocatively captured in over 200 photographs, showing the many changes that have taken place over the last 150 years. Important events are recorded, such as the arrival of the electric tramway in Newport in 1903, and the construction and opening of Newport's internationally significant Transporter Bridge in 1906.
