In the census there is a Hope St and Church St I think but difficult to read

Yes - close to Queen Street on modern OS map. Problem is that the very large scale maps for Tredegar-Blaenau are not available at NLS map site and you need to be a signed up member for the Old-maps site.

The only  6 ins ones at NLS don't show Pit Row and are 1915+.  Could they have been demolished before then?

The link that I gave has

Queen Street
Hope Street
Pump Street
Church Street

http://maps.nls.uk/view/102186091#zoom=5&lat=2411&lon=4045&layers=BT

There are some buildings/a row of houses to the north of Queen St that aren't labelled - a public house at both ends.
