The Hafod. Llandinam.
« on: Monday 03 September 07 19:52 BST (UK) »
Does anyone know,please, of an old house called The Hafod in Llandinam. It was there in the 1930's, and quite an imposing house it was! It was a favourite place for my aunts to cycle to from Lani for picnics, so it must have been in quite large grounds. Is it still there, and exactly where is it? I would love to visit it.
Many thanks.

Hello Ricky.
Many thanks for that link! It seems like the place, but maybe a bit too far out of Llanidloes to cycle, and for a little girl to walk pushing a doll's pram on Xmas day, which the owners had given her. I'll try and contact them anyway.
Thank you once again.
