A vacant Cardiff building is set to get a new lease of life as a pop-up family history café this spring. Family history website Findmypast has selected a vacant building on Tudor Street in the Riverside area of the city to house a family history pop-up café as part of a UK-wide project.
The family history platform announced that they are trialling a small number of pop-up shops on 20 UK high streets, with Tudor Street being among them. Both experienced family history researchers and those keen to find out more about their family tree will be welcomed to the pop-up, dubbed 'Findmypasty'.
Touch screens will be installed across the café with free access to Findmypast’s hint and tips content and tree building software to help users find out more about their family history. The website also has access to millions of Welsh records and historical newspapers for people to browse.
