EDITORS COMMENTS
Captured in the midst of a winter wonderland, this breathtaking print showcases walls of solid snow, towering above the average man's height. These majestic structures lead into the enchanting town of Llantwit Major from Llanmaes, revealing a scene straight out of a fairytale. Taken on the 22nd of February in 1978, shortly after this village was accessible to traffic once again, it encapsulates an era when extreme weather conditions brought both awe and challenges. The Vale of Glamorgan in Wales experienced an unforgettable blizzard during that fateful winter season. The severity of the cold resulted in drifts so immense that they formed these magnificent walls along the path. Against all odds, one brave soul can be seen venturing through this snowy labyrinth with determination etched upon his face. This image serves as a powerful reminder of nature's might and resilience. It transports us back to a time when winters were truly harsh and unforgiving. As we gaze upon this frozen landscape, we are reminded to appreciate our modern comforts and marvel at those who braved such severe conditions. Preserved by Memory Lane Prints from Western Mail Archive, this photograph allows us to step into history for just a moment – immersing ourselves in an extraordinary winter scene that will forever remain etched within our memories.
