Step
back in time to the early 1940s…
Most people have heard of the London ‘Blitz’, but the ports
and industrial towns of South Wales were also targets for the German
Luftwaffe. 1940s Swansea Bay tells the story of the impact of the bombing
raids on the area, and how the local people managed to cope with the
devastation.
Ewch yn ôl
i’r 1940au cynnar…
Mae llawer o bobl wedi clywed am ‘Blitz’ Llundain, ond roedd
porthladdoedd a threfi diwydiannol De Cymru hefyd yn dargedau i Luftwaffe’r
Almaen. Mae Bae Abertawe 1940au yn adrodd stori effaith yr ymosodiadau
bomio ar yr ardal, a sut roedd y bobl lleol yn ymateb i’r dinistr.
