Local History Coffee Morning & Talk @ Neath Library

BOOKABLE. On the evening of Saturday 15th May 1915, a violent crowd, angered by Germany’s sinking of the passenger liner Lusitania attacked two, long established, jewellers’ shops in Green Street, Neath.1 Neither of the shops’ owners, nor their families were related but they shared the surname of Kaltenbach and with Britain at war with Germany, the misfortune of being German. Local historian Ray Collier recalls the event at Neath Library’s local history coffee morning in October
