EDITORS COMMENTS
. Step back in time to December 6th, 1960, when Cardiff faced one of its most devastating floods. This print captures the surreal sight of The Arms Park submerged under water, a poignant reminder of the power and unpredictability of nature. The image transports us to an era where rugby reigned supreme in this Welsh city. Despite being known as a hallowed ground for sporting triumphs and celebrations, on that fateful day, The Arms Park became a symbol of resilience against adversity. As floodwaters engulfed the stadium's pitch and stands, it stood as a testament to the indomitable spirit ingrained within Cardiff's DNA. This photograph not only documents a significant moment in history but also serves as a window into life during the 1960s. It encapsulates an era defined by camaraderie and passion for sportsmanship amidst challenging circumstances. Preserved by Memory Lane Prints from Western Mail and Echo Copyright Image archives, this snapshot offers us an opportunity to reflect on our shared heritage while marveling at how far we have come since then.
