What can gleam from the photo,
Evidently the lady on right walking towards town appears to have fashion from 40's possibly 50's.

Its obviously not rush hour !!

Could it be when road was being widened....appears to be lorry and crane in front of houses further up on left hand side

Possibly before tech (now uni) was built......
Probably not a match day as more than likely cars would have bee parked alongside rear of stand, or could it be and lass on left is waiting for her pa to come out.

Pub sign seems to be for border though blurs when you enlarge photo.

Can anyone recall what exactly the small kiosk building immediately on right was, on corner of where bowling green was.

Can't spot anything in the newspaper archives for road widening notices - but do agree that is what looks like is happening.

Old maps indicate it would possibly be 1950s time?

This is from 1948 and appears to show the gardens still intact - click link for bigger Coflein

Nosing through some stuff found this shot from 1976 - think it has been on here before https://www.peoplescollection.wales/items/28939
