EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time and explore the history of Llantwit-Vardre Cottage Homes, a once-thriving community located in Church Village, Glamorgan, Wales. Established in 1892 by the Pontypridd Union, these charming Victorian and Edwardian cottages provided accommodation for pauper children, offering them a respite from the harsh realities of the workhouse system. Each cottage housed approximately 16 boys or girls, and was overseen by a dedicated house parent. The children were provided with a nurturing and supportive environment, allowing them to grow and thrive in a community setting. The Llantwit-Vardre Cottage Homes were a significant departure from the traditional workhouse system, which was notorious for its harsh conditions and lack of care for its residents. Instead, these homes offered a more humane approach to addressing poverty and providing for the needs of the community's most vulnerable members. This photograph, taken in 1904, captures the idyllic setting of the cottages, with their whitewashed walls, thatched roofs, and lush gardens. The children, dressed in their best clothes, can be seen playing outside, enjoying the sunshine and the simple pleasures of childhood. The Llantwit-Vardre Cottage Homes stand as a testament to the compassionate efforts of the Pontypridd Union and the dedication of its house parents. They offer a glimpse into the past, reminding us of the importance of community, care, and support for those in need.
