Description
Irish immigrants have played a major role in helping to shape the character of modern Swansea.
Most of the migrants settled initially in the Greenhill area of Swansea, which soon came to be known as ‘Little Ireland’.
First published in 1992, this study by Roger Price includes lengthy appendices extracting the names of Irish immigrants from the nineteenth century censuses. Now available as a 2023 reprint.
159 pages, paperback, illustrated with maps and diagrams.
