J J Morgan

Lle y mae golchdy wedi bod ers deugain mlynedd, a chwmni teiars drws nesa, roedd busnes  coed ac deunyddiau adeiladau J J Morgan gynt. Peth rhyfedd oedd bod dau fusnes o’r fath yn yr un stryd. Roedd busnes ‘Y Brodog’ gyferbyn yn cyflawni yr un math o waith.

Yn y llun gwelir y seiri yn sefyll  ar gyfer y ffotograffydd ger ffenest y siop. Ar y lofft, i’r dde o’r iet, byddai pob math o waith saer yn digwydd – o greu ffenestri a drysau i wneud eirch – popeth wedi ei fesur yn ofalus i’r  fodfedd. Roedd sôn bod tipyn o sbort i’w gael yn y siopwaith – tynnu club a chwaer tricie  ar ei  gilydd.

I weld llun arall o griw J J Morgan wrth eu gwaith, gwasgwch yma.

Where there has been a laundry for forty years, and a tyre company next door, there used to be J J Morgan’s timber and building materials business. It was strange that there were two such businesses in the same street. The ‘Brodog Yard’ opposite carried out the same type of work and sold the same goods.

In the picture the carpenters are seen standing for the photographer near the shop window. In the loft to the right of the gate, all kinds of carpentry work would take place – from building windows and doors to making coffins – everything carefully measured to the inch. It was said that there was quite a bit of mischief in the work shop – with leg pulling and trick playing on each other.
