Postcard from Ada, Barry Island 1923

Description

This is a postcard of the Barry Island bathing pool postmarked 1923 sent to Miss Elsie Neale, Hampshire from Ada. Ada had biked to this spot "to keep from getting too fat". Unfortunately Ada tells us nothing of what she thought of the bathing pool and Barry Island!
It shows how formally people dressed for the seaside and also how popular Barry Island was when the photograph was taken.
