    1. [GLA] Address of Pontardawe Workhouse
    2. Jeff Coleman

    3. On the list we have heard several times that births in the former Cardiff Workhouse premises ( City Lodge, St David's Hospital) were registered at 30A Cowbridge Road, Cardiff. Does anyone know what address was used for births at the Pontardawe workhouse (and successor institutions) in Brecon Road, Pontardawe? Was it 84 Brecon Road, Pontardawe? I think it was, as putting that address into www.old-maps.co.uk brings up Dan y Bryn Care Home, 84 Brecon Road,Pontardawe, Swansea SA8 4PD which seems to be at the same location as the workhouse. Can anyone confirm this from their own researches? Jeff
