Hello

Yes it is still there although it is much bigger now as several properties
have been taken over.

It is now a nursing home for the elderly.

                    Sharing ward, 2 beds.............41/2 gns.per week
                    Sharing ward 4 beds..............4 gns. per week.

                     Laundry included.

Fees were paid to Mrs B.Rees SRN.

I was borne in Romilly Road nursing home too in 1948 so I was interested to see the charges, probably a small fortune in those days so I wonder why my parents went there? Were hospital deliveries non-existent then? I now live in Hampshire but was in Cardiff (Ninian Park) on Saturday last and actually went to see the nursing home for the first time, out of curiosity I guess.  As someone else said, it has expanded now, my birth certificate actually says 11 Romilly Road but the address is now 9-15. They have their own website so you can see what it looks like (a bit anyway)
