Blaenant, Caversham

Totally out-welshing the Cardiff Road, Newport Road, Swansea Road enclave just over Caversham Bridge, up here overlooking Hemdean (or Bugs) Bottom is a whole estate of single word Welsh named streets. This is Blaenant, and just along the way are Tymawr, Treforgan, Blaenavon, Glenrhondda, Rhigos, Cwmcarn and a few more. They must have a fine time explaining it all to the Polish postman, but it's got to be more imaginative than the predictable "Badgers Rise" which is just over the back from here.
