Brecon
Jan Tarrant comments:
"Lilliput Lane Brecon Bach was introduced in 1986 - therefore it is
one of the very earlier models and "STYLED on the "Local Vernacular".
A POSSIBLE for the styling - it shows A "typical Brecon (Area)
House" with all the attributes of - "LL Brecon Bach". The location of
the photo - on A 40, at Trecastle, a few miles from Brecon.
The model displays a right hand additional "archway" - perhaps this
was added "to enhance" (this) very early Lilliput Lane Model.
"Mike and Jan saw quite a few houses showing this styling in the
Brecon/Brecon Beacons area".
Another possibility is

The model shows the
canal, the tramway, the Pen Y Darren machine and 2 buildings which we
believe represent the ends of the tramway.
LH building on model:
Navigation House, Cardiff Road
Abercynon, CF45 4RR
RH building:
Labelled "Pen Y Darren
Ironworks".
We're not sure if any buildings still exist.

"This
tramway ran from the canal at Navigation House (now Abercynon) on the
Glamorgan canal to Merthyr Tydfil and the Pen-y-darren ironworks by
Dowlais. The tramway was built to replace a section of the canal which
had many locks and consequently took a lot of time to travel along." |

Plas Brondanw gatehouse cottage
Gatehouse to the estate of
architect Sir Clough Williams Ellis (who designed the village of
Portmeirion)
JRS suggests it may be the
building indicated below
Plas Brondanw is located at Carreg
Llanfrothen. Take the A4085 road from the center of Penrhyndeudraeth
towards Beddgelert. Then take a right turn to Croesor (beyond the B4410
crossroad) past a
gatehouse archway,
following the signposts. The gardens are through double gates on the
left about 200 yards up the hill. They are open daily from 9am-5pm, with
a nominal entrance fee to be deposited in an honesty box. The money goes
towards upkeep of the gardens. The house itself is not open to the
public.

In the weekends there are no problems."
