Nantyderry House, Goytre in 1930s

[ValJJJ]

I have this address as the place of birth in 1931.

Does anyone know if this was a private address or a maternity home then please?

Thanks.

Google shows it as Nant-y-Derry House  Goetre Fawr - built by Thomas Henry Wyatt

Thanks for those links. I too found the building mentioned in a Google search but not its use.

Unfortunately the link within Genes Reunited is no longer useful although the message is helpful.

Would the place have been advertised as a maternity home in local papers or be listed in a directory?

Here are the opening paragraphs of a newspaper article from 1936. Later articles suggest that the house was on the market in 1938.
