OVER the decades, many places change, sometimes becoming completely unrecognisable as they move along with the times and technology.

Other times, places stay relatively the same and by looking back at old photos, you can pinpoint the exact location because it is not much different to the time period you’re currently in and how it looks when you walk past.

This week, we take a look at some old pictures from Cardigan and then look at what they are like on the most recent Google Street View images from 2022. Some of the locations may be in slightly different places on the same street but it is clear to see how much the areas have grown over the last century.

Take a look at the pictures below.
