Hi Tony,
This appears to be at Llangorse, which is between Abergavenny and Brecon.
Unless I am mistaken, Monmouth Road would have run out of Abergavenny in a
different direction. Unless the name of the road extended up as far as
Llangorse, but I somehow doubt it. I've been trying to find details for you
myself, and a friend has been trying to, so far not much success at all I'm
afraid. I'm wondering if someone could find it on a census around that time,
it would give a much better idea, but I'm assuming (and may be wrong) that
it is some type of institution or asylum maybe? Abergavenny is well known
even nowadays for hospitals dealing with mental health issues.
Take care, and I hope you / we find some concrete evidence as to what this
place is for you very soon. Kind regards,
Jon

Hello,
Thank you for that I missed it on my google search, it could have been the
correct place, I think more research is needed.
Best wishes, Tony Pearce
