Have a look at Bagillt High Street on Google Maps.

https://www.google.co.uk/maps/@53.262296,-3.159869,3a,75y,180h,90t/data=!3m4!1e1!3m2!1sjvpVeQ_-eR4Afc5mfFRKtg!2e0

If this shows a picture of a white farm house then you are one end of the village before it re-joins the bypass. Rotate the camera (bottom right) and travel through the village. A great deal of the village has been knocked down and rebuilt but you will see 'The Blossoms' and past the community centre you will see 'The Stag Inn', opposite the 'Bagillt Arms Hotel' (boarded up) Further along you will see 'The Feathers' and that's it. The road joins the bypass.
The Jehovah 's Witness Church is set back amongst some blocks of flats, opposite and just a bit towards the village centre. Their car park may be the location of the Wellington.
Hope this helps.

Eldon, that's brilliant. Many thanks indeed for taking the trouble to post that information. It's great being able to see it from home. I really appreciate it. Thanks again. Phil.
