A CHANCE TO OWN A PIECE OF CARNARVON HISTORY

Thomas & Edwards, of the Castle Works, were manufacturers of 'pop', which they marketed in an eye-catching design of bottle.


These bottles, known as "Codd bottles', had a distinctive method of closure - a marble.


What is special about these bottles is that they feature a wonderful pictorial trade mark showing Carnarvon Castle.


I have a number of these bottles available to purchase. Each date from the 1890s through to the World War I period.


There are a number of different designs to the castle, the bottles will be chosen at random and a particular style cannot be guaranteed.


There are two sizes: large (approx 9" tall), and small (approx. 7.5" tall).


Price is £15 each, post paid to any address in the UK.

ROYAL WELCH FUSILIERS MUSEUM APPEAL

The Royal Welch Fusiliers Museum in Caernarfon have started the mammoth task of looking for photos of individual soldiers from the RWF who were killed in the Great War.

They will be putting each man’s name on display on a screen on the centenary of his death and would dearly love to be able to add a photograph of each man to go with his name. It is a huge undertaking as there were over 10,400 men from the RWF that were killed. But even if they only get a fraction of the photographs they believe it is worth doing. Many of the RWF were from all over so they are asking please could you help?

For further details and to contact the museum:
