In Adamsdown on Davis street, where the fire station is now well behind there, where the housing Association houses are now, that was the GWR yard and the trains used to come in there. They used to have really posh horses with multi storey stables. You could stand in Davis Street and in the night the carts would come in and they would put them on the banks and let the horses go up on their own. So you could watch the horses walk up these series of ramps and they could go up 3 storeys. There was always the smell of horses around there and the smell of steam coal. Sometimes I would just go down there and watch them.
