Pontrhydfendigaid has a Black Lion Hotel. The village of Blacklion, Co. Cavan: is the Republic of Ireland's nearby "opposite number", of Belcoo in Co. Fermanagh and thus Northern Ireland (whisper it -- this location was once of minor-ish railway significance ...)

Dowra is seven miles from the 'Shannon Pot', the source of the River Shannon, the longest river in Ireland. Ashton Keynes in Wiltshire is around seven miles from the source of the longest river in England, the River Thames.
