Sandy,
I think you meant to say you're driving from Merseyside -- I really
recommend you use a map to get you down to the general vicinity (if you've
been to Caersws, Kerry is east of there) from where you live. I'm sitting
in the U.S. (Michigan) looking at a detailed map of the area around Kerry
and that's the best I can do.
Regards,
Julie Preston
