Hi, There is only one Rogerson listed in the 1929 directory, G.T. Rogerson Corn Miller and Grocer, Mill Stores, Gyffin Road Conwy.
In the 1969 Directory there are several Davieses listed as Farmers,but no listing for Pensarn Farm. I will have another look through the Street listings in each.

This is a bit of a puzzle.  A "big white house" near Black Cat roundabout could possibly be Bryn Eisteddfod. but it was never a pub and the road it is on does not lead to Llangwstennin (in the uphill direction) also it is in the old parish of Llansantffraid Glan Conway (now community of Llansanffraid Glan Conwy).

There is the old family of Davies at Marl Farm, possibly there is some connection ?

Llangystenin is a small village near Colwyn Bay but it also the name of a large Parish in the area.    In the Parish are a nimber of small villages and hamlets and Pensarn is in the area described by Cambrian.
I would imagine that the farm is or was in that area and the Conwy Archives in Llandudno would know the location of the farm.

Just following Hugo's comment.  The name of the parish varies - so if researching indexes it is useful to be aware of this.

Rev Robert Williams in his "Aberconwy" (1835) calls the parish "Llangystenin", but the 1843 Enclosure Act refers to it as "Llangwstenin".  The  1895 Order establishing the parish council refers to it as "Llangwstennin" as does the Order which abolished the civil parish in the 1930s. The Church in Wales seems to have called it all three over the years!

I'm sure that we can trace the farm.   Cambrian is very familiar with that area and I hope to see a friend on Tuesday who lives in Bryn Pydew and may well know where the farm is or was

I had a quick look at a Francis Firth map of 1840 and although the image was fuzzy it looked like Pensarn was where the Water Board buiding is today.     The Parish boundary of Llangystenin was very near there but is unrecognisable now with all the development that has gone on there since the late 1960's.
I'll try and find out more next week.

Looking at the Street names in Llandudno Junction in 1929, there is a Pensarn - (name of street/road with Conway road written underneath) these are the addresses listed there:
Welsh Calvinistic Chapel
Chapel House
1-13 Railway Terrace
The Dependence Laundry Co.
Llangwstenyn C of E School

is this the general area identified?
