I have a funny little elderly section a.
I’ve always wondered about his history. I got him from the Blue cross who said he’d been part of a big rescue, many years before. Been in a lovely loan home for 15 years before the owner got sick and had to bring him back.
I’m not sure I want to know exactly what happened to him because I don’t think it was nice. To have been in kind homes for 20 years and still be the way he is someone has been pretty horrible to him.
Weirdly, going through some paperwork I just found an old passport for him. I assume it must have been tucked inside his proper one or folder of stuff he came with. I can’t imagine why I haven’t seen it!
Anyway it’s only one of the old folded card ones but there’s a surname and a place, no address Rhyd y cwm
Don’t suppose anyone knows the area/ name. Is it a farm, village, area? I did google it but it’s not an area I’m familiar with and not much comes up.

There is a Rhyd y cwm near Felindre, west of Knighton on the South Shropshire Powys border.
Thanks, I’m probably stabbing in the dark tbh. I’d hoped maybe it was a known pony breeder or something!
My Aunty used to live in Kington. Wonder if she’s worth cross examining!
