NOSTALGIA can hit at any time, giving people the chance to reminisce about days gone by.

Whether it's hearing something that reminds you of an old story or seeing old pictures and videos, it can transport you back to those times.

Here we take a look through the South Wales Guardian archives to find some pictures from throughout the decades in Ammanford. We have footballers, store openings, retirements and even crowds witnessing a train's arrival.

How many of the people in the pictures do you recognise?
