Title: Llanelli / Llanelly map
Post by: Chris 71 on Tuesday 13 December 16 15:09 GMT (UK)
Can anyone point me in the direction of a street map I can buy of Llanelly/Llanelli set around 1880 to 1930? My family members all seemed to live around Mill Street. Godfreys don't seem to do one so I am stuck.

 :)The first map (other post) is brilliant. This one only has one side with the other being North America. Many thanks for them though.

Apologies the second one should have been zoomed in on where mill Street was as was only a tiny little road.  Did you know where it was or want me to try and bring up the map again as not sure what happened there.

I saw it on a map a while ago but just looking at google maps its not there now. Luckily I have an idea of where it is so will have another look. Thankyou.

Its just off of Upper Anne Street (Now known as just Ann Street)

Hopefully this one below will work and Mill Street is dead centre
