Jan Preece was born in Pillgwenlly, Newport, in the late 1940s. This backdrop of terraced streets and the sights and sounds of the dockland area led him to develop an unshakeable passion for heritage and the past. In the mid-1980s, he started the Pill Heritage Project, a community archive telling the story of Newport’s docklands. Following closure several years ago, Jan moved the archive online (www.quietwomansrow.com), with great success. Today, Jan Preece works as a photographer and architectural model maker.
