I'm not entirely sure where it is I'm afraid.I know someone who might know so I'll be back.

I'm told it was between the Great Western Public House(now closed) and the Railway Station.

I've also e-mailed Morganllan to see if she knows if it still exists.

I've just heard from Morganllan:

Apparently it's near the old Great Western Railway pub, known as the Nant in my days at Ruabon. It's still there apparently and has a turret now

Someone has posted on Llangollen and Ruabon history Facebook page "This is the Brewery and Great Western Inn Ruabon

Another e-mail from Morganllan with a couple of clips from Google maps. I could put a clip up but I think it would be breaching copyright.

On Google maps, if you home in to W.End Terrace/Afon Eitha, it's the long curved building in grey with the central turret.
