Weather enthusiasts who remember the winter of 1963 will recall the severe cold.

The brave officers in the photograph inspecting a fleet of minis, would have been patrolling the streets of Flintshire during the Big Freeze of 1962-63 which lasted almost four months. Do you know the names of any of the officers?
