Reginald Sheen - Pitt Nurseries

[Dannemois]

Hi
I have a Reginald Sheen residing in Govilion near Abergavenny in the early 1900s who was employed as a gardener at 'Pitt Nurseries'.  Can anyone tell me where the nurseries were located.
Thanks

I think they were in Brecon Road,Abergavenny,by the railway station(Brecon Road Station).
Go to www.old-maps.couk
Use the search term-Abergavenny
When the map loads,go to the historic drop down list on the right and choose the 1:2500  1901 map.
Use in built magnifier or Windows zoom as required.

The nurseries were run by Henry Pitt.An advert can be seen at www.historicaldirectories.org.(there will be a separate entry,but this needs a different search term)

Choose location- Wales
Choosev directory-Kellys  Directory of Monmouthshire and S.Wales 1895(Part 2)
Use the search term-Henry Pitt.
This should bring 3 hits(which is a false number)
Use "next hit"
