	Got my thinking cap on- ABER (in Welsh) means Mouth of River. FOYLE could be a variation of the Welsh word MOEL, which when used after Aber, mutates to FOEL, meaning bare or bald. BET YOU ALL COULDN'T WAIT FOR ALL THAT, COULD YOU? :-D :-D Is Aberfoyle on an estuary with a sort of barren landscape?

	Well Llantrithyd is near Cowbridge, not far from Cardiff. There is a deer park there. It's South of the M4. It's not in my AA Great Britain Map book, but you will find it on Google Maps. Are you sure it's HOEL FACH. Could it be Heol Fach? Google is not recognising it, and it's not in my mapbook.

	There's a Heol Fach coming up for North Cornelly in Bridgend. But I don't know if it's a street, district or what. Heol Fach means Little Road, and there's lots of streets named this.

	Barb- my Father was first language Welsh, but my mother was from Kent. So we didn't speak it at home. My mother left when I was 5 and I ended up living with my father and my Gran who would speak and argue in Welsh, but spoke English to me and my brother!!! I understand quite a lot, but as I have nobody to talk it too, I am not as fluent as I could be.
