28) J.R.Motor Spares building, Talbot Road - line and wash


We’re back on the A48 out of town here, the same road that is home to the Plaza, Taibach Library and Ffrwdwyllt House, all of which featured in earlier sketches. JR Motor Spares is housed in a building I like. I’m not sure when it was built – my guess is the 1920s, but I don’t know for certain. Judging by old photos I’ve seen there were buildings of a similar style in Aberavon which were demolished to make room for the town centre.
