Located in High Street, Fleur de Lys, a village adjacent to Pengam, to the SE of Blackwood. The spelling Fleur de Lis is also used, and sometimes with hyphens instead of spaces between the words. I asked a local if he knew the reason for the French name for this village in Wales. He didn't know, but told me that the village is often referred to locally as Flower.
