Thank you everyone for your help.
It has been interesting finding out about the parriss family and pump house. joseph was a watchmaker .i think he lived above the shop (hence name) and i think lucy married earnest jones in 1934.
have not found any connection with my family But i have found a decendant of joseph parriss . i have been in touch and am waiting to hear from him.

Hi Carol,

Some info about where it was sent from can be found on the site below.

http://www.gtj.org.uk/en/small/item/GTJ61157/

It was the Pump House Hotel, Llandrindod Wells.

I lived in Llandrindod for a few years.
