Can you help find this street
« on: Wednesday 08 February 06 20:46 GMT (UK) »
I have just received a copy of a descendants interment, which states he died at balaclava row, penygraig.
I have searched for the address, and found a balaclava court, but no balaclava row.
Does anyone know if this street exists today, or whether it has been knocked down?

Thanks,

Colleen

Balaclava Row has been demolished.

Sheltered housing complex - Balaclava Court now in its place.

It can been seen on Old-Maps.co.uk
