The Big Apple, Swansea

The Big Apple, Swansea

The Big Apple is an important landmark for locals in Mumbles, though not just for locals. It seems that the Mumbles Apple is the last remaining apple kiosk from the whole series created in the 1930s. The building and distribution of the series in seaside towns was meant to serve as publicity for some apple-flavoured soft drink. Today, the Big Apple sells snacks and seaside essentials.
