About us & our site |
Our Community Website group comprises:
www.stbridesmajor.co.uk
St. Brides Major village web site was set up in late 2001. Soon after, details were added for Dunraven, Southerndown, Ogmore Village and Ogmore-by-Sea, followed a short while later by information on Castle-upon-Alun, Heol-y-Mynydd, Norton and Pont-yr-Brown. The hamlets and villages are intrinsically bound together; therefore, news, information, history and photographs have been incorporated into one main Community Web Site under the title of: St. Brides Major, Ogmore-by-Sea and Southerndown.
This is a privately owned, non-profit making community service provided free of charge for the benefit of the villagers and all those who have an interest in our community and surrounding area.
