Message:		Hi, I'm referring to the houses on Mountain Street and Tanrallt. My family lived there from 1841. I visited last weekend for the first time and I was told prior to my visit that the houses to the right (looking up Mountain Street) had been demolished.I was just interested to know if the houses on the left were original to the area. I have a picture of house in Mount Pleasant area taken in the late 1800's I presume, however the houses there now look more modern. The slum clearance I refer to I was told happened at about the turn of the last century, it was not a comment on the area in recent times. Thanks for the warning about the prices. I may try to source them another way. Thanks for your prompt response. Stuart Fellows
