9) Mavericks - Aberavon Beach

Mavericks was the last name of this building, which has been a pub, club or bar since before I came to Port Talbot. When I first moved here it was the Port Talbot RAF Association Club, and it had a massive RAF roundel painted on the side of the building. This stands at the beach end of Victoria Road, several hundred yards from Jubilee House, shown in the previous picture.
