The Andrews family kept the Post Office in Wesley Street, Llantwit Major from around 1870. The first Post Master was William Andrews. His son, Hughie Andrews, took over from him and remained as Post Master until 1941.Hughie Andrews was a sportsman, historian and photographer who recorded life in Llantwit Major in his diaries and by his photography. He has therefore provided a valuable archive of the town from the 1920s to the 1950s. [See Vols 1-7]
