Hi Gill, Multimap shows a Llandegveth on page http://www.multimap.com/map/browse.cgi?client=public&GridE=-2.96230&GridN=51 .65330&lon=-2.96230&lat=51.65330&search_result=Llandegveth%2C%20Monmouthshir e&db=freegaz&keepicon=true&lang=&place=Llandegveth%2C%20Monmouthshire&pc=&ad vanced=&client=public&addr2=&quicksearch=llandegveth&addr3=&scale=100000&add r1= It seems to be just a few miles East of Cwmbran and just North of Caerleon. I am fairly sure this will turn out to be the location. regards Dennis Gill Jones at pwllrhydypwnau@tiscali.co.uk wrote: > Hello Dennis > > The only place I can think of is LLANDEGFEDD near Pontypool.
