Bridgend
Mid Glamorgan, Wales

Operated initially by 1st Bridgend Scout Group. In 1998 the '1st' was dropped from the text and "Group" changed to "Groups". At present it is not known which of the other five groups became involved. Various papers used - illustrations of those known are included by the stamp designs.

Very few details have become available and any extra information would be welcomed - especially news regarding ongoing activity after 1999 (if any).

Bridgend is a district within the Scout County of Mid Glamorgan.
