GB. WALES. Barry Island. General. A father with his children relax on the beach at Barry Island, South Wales.  The picture is during the 'miners' week' the holiday period of the miners of South Wales.  It is probable that most of the people on the beach are miners on their holiday.  Due to the closing of the pits this cultural happening no longer takes place. 1973
