There is a current property called Pen Y Groes at Brynsiencyn,postcode LL61 6SX.It can be seen(just about) at www.old-maps.co.uk using the postcode as the search term,choosing the property and loading the 1:2500 1920 map.
It also features in  censuses under Llanidan parish.

Many Thanks Roger,

I had not looked as far afield and this looks like a very strong candidate. Looked at it on street view, may very well have been an Inn in the past. Had a look at the 1841 census, looked to have been a private house, home to a Joiner and his family.

cheers

Stephen

I noticed in another thread that you thought there might be an alternate name- Groeslon.
There is "Y Groeslon" Hotel Brynsiencyn very close by at postcode LL61 6TU.Looking at old maps this may also have been known as The Bull Inn at one time.

Roger
