It's on the main road of Coytrahen. A row of terraced cottaged with a pub across the road a little further up. I am not even sure if the pub is still there now to be honest but I have looked on google maps and it appears to be called Victoria buildings going by the sign post at the end of the street.

Is the pub you are referring to the Nichols Arms? Haven't been through Coytrahen for years so it might well have closed, though it was very popular back in my youth
Rickards, Gower, Eynon, Davies, Jones/John, Williams, Phillips,Hillier,Hawker,Maddocks.

Yes, the pub is called the Nicholls Arms, named after the Nicholl family of Merthyr Mawr estate, big land owners, with links to the Margam estate.

I only remember the pub as when we were selling the end cottage I got hungry so went and got a packet of crisps from there
Fond memories!
