Dist:0.2km<br/>The 23-seat venue, built from a disused railway carriage, was sited in a back garden in Gorseinon, near Swansea, and began showing films in 1953. The cinema was originally constructed and run by the late Gwyn Phillips (who died in 1996). Safety concerns, following wear and tear to its wood-and-steel structure, caused 'La Charrette' to close. The cinema was dismantled and was rebuilt at the Gower Heritage Centre, Parkmill, where it reopened.

Former chapel demolished
Hi there, can anyone tell me what happened to the 'Eastmoor' Lettings on Clyne Common? I believe it was formerly a children's home with chapel attached. I lived in the one of the converted chapel …
