History The Roman era In Roman times, Ely was the site of a Roman villa. There is also thought to have been a Roman road near the site linking to Cardiff Roman Fort and eastwards to Newport.[1] 1800s In 1855, the first horse race took place at Ely Racecourse, which took over from the Great Heath racecourse.[2] The Ordnance Survey map from the early 1880s shows just how isolated the ancient Ely village was from the rest of Cardiff. Reports about travelling along the main road over Ely Common to Cardiff talk of pot holes and no shelter and a terrible journey on foot. Most of Ely was still farmland feeding Cardiff's population. A railway station had only recently been constructed, and this gave the surrounding area further potential for mass housing development. Ely, Cardiff 2 The 'Ely Industrial School' on Cowbridge Road East was home to orphaned children originally from Cardiff. It had been set up to accommodate "pauper children" from 1863. It was very much a product of the Victorian age, and workhouse mentality, increased social awareness and responsibility saw it closing in 1903 and converted to additional workhouse accommodation for adults (though never used for that purpose), known as Ely Lodge. The children lived in what became as Ely Homes.[3] The school was demolished some years later and an infectious diseases isolation unit was built on the same site. An old trolleybus crossing Grand Avenue in Ely several decades ago. The land was once owned by the Earl of Plymouth, who dictated that alcohol may not be sold on the land. As a result, like other plots of land with similar conditions, the boundaries of the old estate can be approximated by the locations of public houses around the area. To attract business from nearby areas, establishments would be built as close to it as possible without actually being in Ely (local Ely Fire Station, on Cowbridge Road West establishments are actually in Caerau and Fairwater). 1900s and 2000s Ely's rapid expansion of housing began in the 1920s to provide 'homes fit for heroes' after World War I. This came with the construction of council houses to rehouse people from Cardiff's inner-city slums. Ely Racecourse had its grandstand destroyed in a fire in 1937 and was then closed in 1939. The area is widely considered to be one of Cardiff's less desirable areas in terms of crime and standard of living. But the residents of Ely are keen to dispel this reputation, citing the fact it is a very [4] large, close knit community. Ely Library The area was scarred by rioting and petrol bombing during 1991 when shops and houses were burned down by angry mobs in the Ely Petrol Riots. Ely, Cardiff 3 Transport Cowbridge Road West (the A48) is the predominant road running through Ely as it runs on to Canton and Cardiff city centre to the east, and to Culverhouse Cross interchange to the west. The parallel Grand Avenue links Cowbridge Road West to the northern estates of Ely. Ely features several shopping parades, notably on Wilson Road as well as Grand Avenue. Ely is served by Cardiff Bus' Capital City Red bus services 17 and 18 using articulated buses which operate every 10 minutes from Central Station via Canton and Caerau. North Ely is also served by services 12 and 13 which terminate westbound at Culverhouse Cross and eastbound in Tremorfa. Cardiff Bus services 96, 101 & 102, St Davids Travel service 18A, First Cymru service X2 and Easyway service 322 also serve the area. The nearest station, which is accessible via Birdies Lane or Cowbridge Road, is Waun-Gron Park in Fairwater. Public Houses There are several pubs in the Ely area, such as The Bridge Inn, on Ely Bridge, Cowbridge Road. And there are numerous social clubs, such as Ely Social and Sports Club (near Ely bridge), the Ely Royal Air Force Association (on Riverside Terrace in Lower Ely), Glamorgan Wanderers RFC Clubhouse (home of Glamorgan Wanderers RFC), and Cardiff West End Social Club (near the bottom of Wilson road.) Youth Primary schools in Ely include: • Trelai Primary School [5] • Millbank Primary School [6] • Windsor Clive Junior School • Herbert Thompson School on Plymouthwood Road • Hywel Dda (considered best school football team of the century) • Saint Francis RC primary school. High Schools in Ely include: • Michaelston Community College • Mary Immaculate High School. Youth Centres in Ely include: • North Ely YC ([email protected]) on Pethybridge Road • Dusty Forge Project on Cowbridge Road West Famous people from Ely • Shakin' Stevens, singer who enjoyed the height of his fame in the 1980s. • Steve Robinson (born 13 December 1968 Cardiff, Wales) WBO Featherweight boxer. • Ryan Giggs prolific footballer for Manchester United, also a long serving one club player • Nicky Piper, super middleweight and light heavyweight boxer. • Danielle Lineker, model and wife of Gary Lineker Ely, Cardiff 4 Electoral ward The electoral ward of Ely falls within the parliamentary constituency of Cardiff West. It is bounded by Fairwater and Gabalfa to the northwest; Caerau to the south (although some of Lower Ely is technically in the electoral ward of Caerau, as is Trelai (Ely) Park); Culverhouse Cross to the west; and the Vale of Glamorgan to the southwest. Ely/Caerau confusion The Ely electoral ward consists of the area north of Cowbridge Road West, while the Caerau elecoral ward consists of the area south of Cowbridge Road West. However, a misconception is Caerau being a subsection of the Ely area. External links • OpenStreetMap map of the Ely area.

  • Wales-Ireland Travelogue 2009
    WALES AND IRELAND TRIP MAY 12 TO JUNE 4, 2009 What a coincidence! Meaningless, to be sure - but a coincidence, nonetheless. Our trip to the British Isles in 2009 began and ended one day earlier than our trip to Scotland, May 14 to June 5, 2001. (One can only hope that September of this year doesn't hold the same sort of unpleasant surprise that was visited upon us eight years ago.) OK, so I made a "small" error - we are departing two days earlier, not one. And, OK, so it wasn't much of a coincidence, was it? I mean, a real coincidence - one of excruciating consequence - occurred at the Polo Grounds in NYC on October 3, 1951 when Ralph Branca of the Blessed Brooklyn Dodgers was called in to pitch in the 9th inning and, by coincidence, Bobby Thomson of the Bestial New York Giants happened to come to bat, and, by coincidence, Mr. Branca happened to throw a pitch that the aforementioned Mr. Thomson happened to swing at, and, by coincidence, made contact with said pitch and drove it a miserable 309 feet into the first row of the left- field seats of the absurdly apportioned Polo Grounds, thus ending the Dodgers' season and causing a certain 12-year-old, watching on TV, in Brooklyn to burst into tears. Now that was a coincidence! But I digress. Tuesday, May 12 to Wednesday, May 13 Rather than leaving our car at the Seattle Airport Parking Garage (cost for three-plus weeks $468) or at an airport hotel (about $335) we decide to try the new Gig Harbor Taxi (at $95 each way, including tip).
