I have a birthplace for an ancestor down as Penparc Cottages, Llansantffraed, Bwlch.
I know where Bwlch is but can't find Llansantffraed in it. I assume the cottages are gone.
Also, would anyone know which county this was during 1896-1911?
Thanks!!

This looks like the cottages (east side of map) in 1903 between Bwlch and Llansantffraed to the west on the next map

Edit - This side by side with a modern aerial photo and the property appears to still be there

That looks like the one Kay! Thanks very much!!
The source is a good one too, how are the maps searched?
Would this be in Breconshire then?

This is a link to the site which is brilliant and free
http://maps.nls.uk/
Select the series maps and then you have a choice of maps in Scotland and England/Wales
Have fun! I think it was Breconshire
