I am interested in the Cosslett family of poets who lived in
Monmouthshire and Glamorgan in the 19th century (even though I don't
have a direct family connection with them). There is a brief article
about two of them, Coslett Coslett and his brother William Coslett in
Welsh Biography Online. (The most common spelling of the name seems to
be "Cosslett" but that is not the version used in Welsh Biography
Online).

By chance I stumbled on a street called "Cosslett Row" in the Rock
area of Bedwellty in the 1861 census. The reference is:
RG9; Piece: 4006; Folio: 56; Page: 10
Actually Cosslett Row starts near the foot of page 9 and seems to go
on to about page 14.
I have not been able to find Cosslett Row in other censuses and
searching for it in Google and Google Maps does not produce any
relevant results.
Where exactly in the Rock area was Cosslett Row, what is in that
location today, and did it have any connection with the family of
poets with that name? If anyone on this list can answer these
questions or can suggest where I might be able to find answers, I
would be grateful.
