Handwritten placename in North Wales P**n y ****d

[HughesRL]

Can anyone decipher the wife's residence at the time of marriage, underneath "Liverpool"? Thank you.

I should add the date is 1862.

... It is from a marriage certificate dated 1862 in the Parish of LLanferres in the County of Denbigh.

Based purely on the handwriting (I am not familiar with that area), it looks to me like Pwllyblawd - and I see there is such a place in Llanferres, in the centre of this map (as Pwll-y-blawd):

I've just looked at this and saw it as  Pwllyblawd.  I see that Arthur has it as this too.

I kept thinking "Will I beat Gadget with this one - she's bound to know it, but she can't have seen it yet"

Well done both of you  and a warm welcome to RootsChat, HughesRL

I was off doing other things, Arthur.

Croeso, HughesRL

I couldn't get RC's shrink link to accept the url so have used Tiny. Strange because it usually works.

Add- just seen that you gave a map ref, Arthur. Sorry! 

I've not come across the name before - plenty of Pwll (pool or pond) but not Blawd. I see that it means flour or meal - so Flour Pool
