A RUGBY historian is asking for help with stories from the past of Bedwas RFC.

Howard Evans has worked with fellow memorabilia enthusiast Phil Atkinson on the history of Aberavon with a book due out before the end of the year.

He is now joining forces with Ian Lovell to catalogue the history of Bedwas and is keen to hear from anybody with any details or stories from Bridge Field between 1919 until the 1980s.

Anybody who can help in any way is asked to contact Evans by emailing evanshoward1@aol.com or by ringing 02920 778623.
