-Welcome to the 04Wal archives -from 2001. | 0:00:20 | 0:00:23 | |
-We're often reminded -that space should be utilized. | 0:00:23 | 0:00:27 | |
-A building can be a home, -regardless of its original purpose. | 0:00:27 | 0:00:32 | |
-We visit a shop -owned by the late Cecil Williams... | 0:00:32 | 0:00:36 | |
-..and a chapel, but first, -a former school in Manafon. | 0:00:36 | 0:00:39 | |
-CHILDREN'S VOICES | 0:00:40 | 0:00:42 | |
-Having lived in London for years, -Ann Chidgey moved back to Wales... | 0:00:54 | 0:00:59 | |
-..to teach in one school -and to live in another! | 0:01:00 | 0:01:03 | |
-When I designed this house, -I didn't want to change much. | 0:01:07 | 0:01:11 | |
-I felt a responsibility -towards its history. | 0:01:11 | 0:01:14 | |
-I liked it as it was... | 0:01:14 | 0:01:16 | |
-..so why change something -that works well? | 0:01:17 | 0:01:20 | |
-We like it like this. | 0:01:23 | 0:01:25 | |
-I had lots of ideas -about what I wanted... | 0:01:26 | 0:01:30 | |
-..but lacked the knowledge -to carry them out. | 0:01:30 | 0:01:35 | |
-I worked closely with a surveyor. | 0:01:35 | 0:01:38 | |
-He gave me lots of ideas... | 0:01:38 | 0:01:40 | |
-..and helped me turn dreams -into a reality. | 0:01:40 | 0:01:44 | |
-We came up with a design -that's suitable for the building. | 0:01:44 | 0:01:48 | |
-First of all, we decided -not to have too many bedrooms. | 0:01:51 | 0:01:56 | |
-I wanted to have three bedrooms -but it was too complicated... | 0:01:58 | 0:02:02 | |
-..and it made the house -feel less spacious. | 0:02:03 | 0:02:06 | |
-We decided to have two bedrooms -and things just fell into place. | 0:02:06 | 0:02:11 | |
-I wanted to have the gallery -on the other side... | 0:02:11 | 0:02:15 | |
-..but it made sense -to have it opposite the window. | 0:02:16 | 0:02:20 | |
-I don't like too much clutter. | 0:02:26 | 0:02:28 | |
-I like the freedom to move around... | 0:02:29 | 0:02:32 | |
-..without worrying -about tripping over something! | 0:02:32 | 0:02:36 | |
-I like the spacious, open feel. | 0:02:36 | 0:02:39 | |
-I find it easy to relax here. | 0:02:42 | 0:02:44 | |
-It's very quiet now... | 0:02:45 | 0:02:47 | |
-..but I can sense how busy -and bustling it was years ago. | 0:02:47 | 0:02:51 | |
-I feel as though I'm the caretaker -of this building. | 0:02:52 | 0:02:56 | |
-In which room -do you spend most time? | 0:02:59 | 0:03:01 | |
-If we're sitting down and relaxing, -we're in here. | 0:03:03 | 0:03:07 | |
-It's a large room, but it heats up -really well during the winter. | 0:03:08 | 0:03:13 | |
-We close the doors and the fire -gives off plenty of heat. | 0:03:14 | 0:03:18 | |
-During the day, I like to sit -at the kitchen table... | 0:03:22 | 0:03:26 | |
-..and gaze out of the window. | 0:03:26 | 0:03:28 | |
-BELL RINGS | 0:03:46 | 0:03:48 | |
-We've visited converted cowsheds -and mills in the past... | 0:03:49 | 0:03:53 | |
-..but never a home -that was once a shop... | 0:03:53 | 0:03:57 | |
-..which is now a home -and a shop in one! | 0:03:57 | 0:04:00 | |
-Cecil Williams was born in Essex. | 0:04:03 | 0:04:06 | |
-His parents moved there -from Dolgellau in 1926. | 0:04:07 | 0:04:10 | |
-He later decided -to move to the area. | 0:04:10 | 0:04:13 | |
-It's the first time -he has ever lived in Wales. | 0:04:13 | 0:04:16 | |
-He speaks Welsh fluently -and runs an antiquesshop. | 0:04:18 | 0:04:22 | |
-You sit in your shop all day -and it becomes your lounge at night. | 0:04:33 | 0:04:38 | |
-I sit down and watch television. -I live in it. | 0:04:40 | 0:04:43 | |
-When someone rings the bell, -I let them in and I just carry on. | 0:04:43 | 0:04:48 | |
-If they want to see something -or ask a question, I'm here. | 0:04:49 | 0:04:53 | |
-Is business good? -Is this a good location? | 0:04:54 | 0:04:59 | |
-Yes, I think business will be good -during the summer. | 0:04:59 | 0:05:03 | |
-I've sold a lot of items -since I moved here. | 0:05:04 | 0:05:07 | |
-I had the opening night last Friday. | 0:05:07 | 0:05:10 | |
-A wealthy local farmer -bought one of the cockerels. | 0:05:11 | 0:05:15 | |
-He already had 24 hens and he wanted -a cockerel to look after them! | 0:05:16 | 0:05:20 | |
-China hens, I presume? | 0:05:20 | 0:05:22 | |
-China hens, I presume? - -Yes. | 0:05:22 | 0:05:23 | |
-Are you glad -you moved to Dolgellau? | 0:05:25 | 0:05:28 | |
-Yes. I was born in Essex -and lived there all my life. | 0:05:28 | 0:05:32 | |
-I was part of the rat race. | 0:05:32 | 0:05:34 | |
-Everyone is friendly around here. | 0:05:34 | 0:05:37 | |
-I know a lot of people. | 0:05:37 | 0:05:39 | |
-What attracted you to this house? | 0:06:03 | 0:06:06 | |
-It's in a lovely spot, -close to the town centre. | 0:06:07 | 0:06:12 | |
-I came to view the property and -imagined what I could do with it. | 0:06:12 | 0:06:18 | |
-I had no intention -of opening an antiques shop. | 0:06:19 | 0:06:23 | |
-I just planned to live here. | 0:06:23 | 0:06:25 | |
-What have you done -to the house, in all? | 0:06:26 | 0:06:29 | |
-I knocked down walls -and removed cement. | 0:06:30 | 0:06:33 | |
-I replastered it -and had the whole house rewired. | 0:06:33 | 0:06:37 | |
-I installed gas central heating. | 0:06:37 | 0:06:40 | |
-I even found this old inglenook. | 0:06:41 | 0:06:43 | |
-This ceiling is new. | 0:06:46 | 0:06:47 | |
-This ceiling is new. - -Everything has been stripped. | 0:06:47 | 0:06:50 | |
-There were beams across here, -but I plastered over them... | 0:06:50 | 0:06:55 | |
-..to conform to building -and fire regulations. | 0:06:55 | 0:06:58 | |
-It's better, in one way. -It makes the room lighter. | 0:06:59 | 0:07:03 | |
-The trouble is, I'd like to keep -a lot of the things I've bought! | 0:07:17 | 0:07:21 | |
-Why don't you keep them? | 0:07:22 | 0:07:24 | |
-It's an antiques shop. -Everything has to be for sale! | 0:07:24 | 0:07:28 | |
-I've collected top quality -china cockerels for years. | 0:07:29 | 0:07:33 | |
-Now, I have to sell them! | 0:07:34 | 0:07:36 | |
-I don't have to sell them, -but everything is for sale. | 0:07:37 | 0:07:41 | |
-Is everything in your house -for sale? | 0:07:43 | 0:07:46 | |
-I suppose not... | 0:07:46 | 0:07:48 | |
-..but it's difficult. | 0:07:52 | 0:07:54 | |
-I just feel -everything has to be for sale. | 0:07:54 | 0:07:57 | |
-I'd sell myself, -if I could get a decent price! | 0:07:59 | 0:08:02 | |
-In Blue Anchor, near Penclawdd, -overlooking the Loughor estuary... | 0:08:16 | 0:08:21 | |
-..is Capel Isaac, -the home of Amanda Frobisher... | 0:08:22 | 0:08:25 | |
-..her children, Osian and Nia, -and her husband, Simon. | 0:08:25 | 0:08:29 | |
-There was a chapel here -until three years ago... | 0:08:29 | 0:08:32 | |
-..and this new house -has echoes of the old chapel. | 0:08:33 | 0:08:37 | |
-It was our choice. We didn't -have to make it look like a chapel. | 0:08:38 | 0:08:42 | |
-Everyone in the community -was fond of the chapel. | 0:08:43 | 0:08:46 | |
-It was part of everyone's history. | 0:08:47 | 0:08:49 | |
-Everyone had special memories of it. | 0:08:50 | 0:08:53 | |
-We took that on board and -designed something quite similar. | 0:08:53 | 0:08:57 | |
-Did local people protest against it? | 0:08:58 | 0:09:01 | |
-No, but it was a sensitive issue. | 0:09:02 | 0:09:04 | |
-People came every day -and asked questions. | 0:09:05 | 0:09:08 | |
-They were interested -in what we were doing. | 0:09:09 | 0:09:12 | |
-They wanted to be sure -that we weren't creating a monster! | 0:09:12 | 0:09:17 | |
-The only strict rule -was the height of the house. | 0:09:17 | 0:09:21 | |
-This house is within an inch -of the height of the old chapel. | 0:09:21 | 0:09:26 | |
-It was important -to the local planner. | 0:09:26 | 0:09:29 | |
-These are oak floors. | 0:09:37 | 0:09:39 | |
-The floorboards upstairs -were rescued from the chapel. | 0:09:39 | 0:09:43 | |
-These boards are new. | 0:09:43 | 0:09:45 | |
-A local firm in Ammanford -made these floors. | 0:09:47 | 0:09:50 | |
-The doors are also made of oak. | 0:09:50 | 0:09:52 | |
-I love that cupboard. | 0:09:57 | 0:09:59 | |
-It's an old bookcase -that was also in an old chapel. | 0:09:59 | 0:10:03 | |
-This is a very respectable house! -Everything came from a chapel! | 0:10:04 | 0:10:08 | |
-It's great - you can fit -lots of stuff in there. | 0:10:08 | 0:10:12 | |
-These doors are interesting. -The handles are made of wood. | 0:10:15 | 0:10:20 | |
-Did you have those made locally? | 0:10:20 | 0:10:21 | |
-Did you have those made locally? - -No, they were made in Oxford. | 0:10:21 | 0:10:23 | |
-Why did you choose wooden handles? | 0:10:24 | 0:10:26 | |
-Why did you choose wooden handles? - -I just knew I wanted wooden floors. | 0:10:26 | 0:10:29 | |
-Simon and Osian -suffer from allergies... | 0:10:32 | 0:10:35 | |
-..so we didn't want carpets -on the floors. | 0:10:36 | 0:10:39 | |
-Wooden door furniture -was in keeping with the floors. | 0:10:40 | 0:10:44 | |
-The light, airy hall -is very reminiscent of a chapel. | 0:10:58 | 0:11:02 | |
-I knew how the house would look, -but I had no concept of its size. | 0:11:07 | 0:11:12 | |
-Simon took me and the children -to Llangennith... | 0:11:12 | 0:11:17 | |
-..and drew an outline -of the house's size on the beach. | 0:11:17 | 0:11:21 | |
-He traced its shape in the sand -with a piece of wood. | 0:11:22 | 0:11:25 | |
-We could then walk -from room to room... | 0:11:26 | 0:11:28 | |
-..and we knew exactly how big -every room would be. | 0:11:28 | 0:11:32 | |
-You have lots of maritime artefacts. | 0:11:35 | 0:11:38 | |
-I can see some boats... | 0:11:38 | 0:11:40 | |
-..lots of seashells -and pictures on the walls. | 0:11:41 | 0:11:46 | |
-Are you interested in the sea? | 0:11:46 | 0:11:48 | |
-Yes, we all love the sea. | 0:11:48 | 0:11:50 | |
-We live near the sea. | 0:11:50 | 0:11:52 | |
-Simon is related -to Sir Martin Frobisher... | 0:11:53 | 0:11:57 | |
-..the Elizabethan mariner. | 0:11:58 | 0:12:01 | |
-Simon works on the sea. | 0:12:01 | 0:12:03 | |
-Even when he's home, -he goes sea fishing. | 0:12:03 | 0:12:07 | |
-The road that leads to Penclawdd -is far higher than the house. | 0:12:10 | 0:12:15 | |
-Has that caused any problems? | 0:12:15 | 0:12:17 | |
-We had to build -an extremely thick wall there. | 0:12:18 | 0:12:23 | |
-There's a lot of metalwork -in the wall. | 0:12:25 | 0:12:28 | |
-We blew the budget on it. -It cost around 8,000! | 0:12:29 | 0:12:34 | |
-It had to be strong enough... | 0:12:34 | 0:12:36 | |
-..to take the weight of the road -and the houses. | 0:12:36 | 0:12:40 | |
-Another disadvantage is that people -can see into your bedroom! | 0:12:40 | 0:12:46 | |
-Yes, we give them -a great performance every day! | 0:12:46 | 0:12:49 | |
-. | 0:12:51 | 0:12:52 | |

-Welcome back to 2001. | 0:13:01 | 0:13:02 | |
-In the second half, -we look at artists' houses. | 0:13:03 | 0:13:06 | |
-Artists' homes are often -an extension of their creativity. | 0:13:06 | 0:13:11 | |
-We visit Gwynedd later, -but first, to Brittany... | 0:13:11 | 0:13:15 | |
-..home of Gwilym Prichard -and Claudia Williams. | 0:13:15 | 0:13:18 | |
-What attracted you to this house? | 0:13:36 | 0:13:40 | |
-When we viewed it, -we came upstairs to this room. | 0:13:41 | 0:13:45 | |
-It was just a garret. | 0:13:46 | 0:13:47 | |
-You could see the slates on the roof. | 0:13:49 | 0:13:51 | |
-We thought we could put -north-facing windows up there... | 0:13:52 | 0:13:56 | |
-..and turn it -into a wonderful studio. | 0:13:57 | 0:14:00 | |
-As in all things, -you must use your imagination. | 0:14:02 | 0:14:06 | |
-You must be able to envisage -what you can do with a room... | 0:14:06 | 0:14:10 | |
-..and with a whole house. | 0:14:11 | 0:14:13 | |
-How many hours a day -do you spend up here? | 0:14:15 | 0:14:18 | |
-We're here all day, -from nine o'clock in the morning. | 0:14:19 | 0:14:24 | |
-We work from nine o'clock -until lunchtime. | 0:14:25 | 0:14:29 | |
-We come back to the studio -after lunch until the evening. | 0:14:29 | 0:14:34 | |
-What's your favourite part -of the house? | 0:14:36 | 0:14:39 | |
-The studio. | 0:14:40 | 0:14:41 | |
-Because you spend -so much time here? | 0:14:42 | 0:14:45 | |
-Well, I love the smell of oil paint. | 0:14:49 | 0:14:52 | |
-I'm also completely happy -with my surroundings. | 0:14:54 | 0:14:58 | |
-Everything in here -means something to you. | 0:15:03 | 0:15:06 | |
-Did you plan to make this -your permanent home? | 0:15:22 | 0:15:25 | |
-We've moved into every house -thinking we'd live there forever. | 0:15:26 | 0:15:31 | |
-We then make the house a home. | 0:15:35 | 0:15:38 | |
-Once we move in, we work on a house -and make it just right for us. | 0:15:39 | 0:15:44 | |
-We adapt ourselves -to our surroundings. | 0:15:48 | 0:15:51 | |
-I see that you're not afraid -to paint pieces of furniture. | 0:15:52 | 0:15:56 | |
-People tend to show -their furniture too much respect. | 0:15:56 | 0:16:00 | |
-You want to customize -your furniture. | 0:16:01 | 0:16:05 | |
-Yes, but we wouldn't paint -Chippendale furniture! | 0:16:05 | 0:16:11 | |
-Claudia painted the table -we have downstairs. | 0:16:14 | 0:16:18 | |
-It's only plywood, -but it looks like painted wood. | 0:16:18 | 0:16:24 | |
-She has a good eye for such things, -much more so than me! | 0:16:29 | 0:16:32 | |
-Claudia is responsible -for the bold colours. | 0:16:42 | 0:16:45 | |
-She also arranged the furniture -and the interesting antiques. | 0:16:45 | 0:16:49 | |
-You use this room -as your own personal gallery? | 0:16:56 | 0:17:01 | |
-Yes. | 0:17:02 | 0:17:04 | |
-It's good to be able to see -your paintings on the wall. | 0:17:05 | 0:17:09 | |
-You can see which ones -hang well together. | 0:17:10 | 0:17:14 | |
-Paintings often look alright -on the easel... | 0:17:14 | 0:17:19 | |
-..but when they're on the wall, -I realize that they look terrible! | 0:17:20 | 0:17:26 | |
-I then take it down and do it again. | 0:17:28 | 0:17:31 | |
-What about this ping-pong table? | 0:17:32 | 0:17:34 | |
-We used to play ping-pong, -when we had time on our hands! | 0:17:35 | 0:17:39 | |
-Do you get a flash of inspiration -during a game? | 0:17:41 | 0:17:45 | |
-"That picture needs a tree!" | 0:17:45 | 0:17:47 | |
-Mihangel Arfor Jones moved home -to Wales from England... | 0:18:05 | 0:18:09 | |
-..to work as a serious -professional artist. | 0:18:10 | 0:18:13 | |
-Having said that, the decor -in his house is very humorous. | 0:18:13 | 0:18:17 | |
-We relaid the roof and restored -the wall to its original state. | 0:18:35 | 0:18:40 | |
-We also kept the windows and doors. | 0:18:40 | 0:18:43 | |
-It's old-fashioned. | 0:18:45 | 0:18:47 | |
-You've added a few things -to the exterior, such as the birds. | 0:18:48 | 0:18:53 | |
-Yes, they're fun. | 0:18:53 | 0:18:55 | |
-Yes, they're fun. - -That knocker is great. | 0:18:55 | 0:18:57 | |
-Is that a typical example -of your work? | 0:18:58 | 0:19:02 | |
-Is there humour in your work? | 0:19:02 | 0:19:04 | |
-Is there humour in your work? - -No! | 0:19:04 | 0:19:06 | |
-No, my work is devoid of humour! | 0:19:06 | 0:19:10 | |
-That's why I like -these small touches. | 0:19:12 | 0:19:15 | |
-Why the poem 'Mab y Mynydd'? | 0:19:43 | 0:19:45 | |
-There was no door here, -so I put the door in. | 0:19:45 | 0:19:48 | |
-Making a door is no fun. -It was hard work! | 0:19:48 | 0:19:52 | |
-I like the poem 'Mab y Mynydd', -so I carved it into the door. | 0:19:52 | 0:19:57 | |
-It's about a country boy -whose heart is in the mountain. | 0:19:57 | 0:20:01 | |
-That's how I felt -when I lived in London. | 0:20:01 | 0:20:04 | |
-You carved that -into the wood yourself? | 0:20:06 | 0:20:08 | |
-Yes. With a Stanley knife. | 0:20:09 | 0:20:11 | |
-You can do that -with a Stanley knife? | 0:20:12 | 0:20:15 | |
-You can build a house -with a Stanley knife! | 0:20:16 | 0:20:18 | |
-This is the hall, the first thing -people see when they come in. | 0:20:32 | 0:20:37 | |
-There's a lot of red here. | 0:20:37 | 0:20:39 | |
-Yes, this is a cold house -and red is a warm colour. | 0:20:39 | 0:20:43 | |
