This is one of a batch of photos kindly sent to us by Richard Morgan. They were taken by his father, P. I. Morgan, and date from the mid 1930s unless stated otherwise.

Newport Carnival was an integral part of the Royal Gwent Hospital Fete. The carnival procession in 1936 was held on Thursday 6th August.
