The Rousham Roberts Collection

A glass plate negative from the Rousham Roberts collection Rousham Roberts' family owned a photographic studio in Llandrindod Wells from the 1890s to the 1960s. Since the closure of the studio, a collection of their glass plate negatives has been housed in the town's museum. These images can now be viewed online, thanks to the work of a dedicated volunteer.
