A pub house called Drovers Arms in Wales, ca 1930s

Colorized a photo of a restored Drovers Arms at the highest points of the Mynydd Epynt mountain in Pentre Dolau Honddu, Wales prior to being closed in 1940 when the entire area was taken over by the military and closed off for training. Based on the site here http://www.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~wlsbfhs/article01.htm, It has been on the mountain as early as the 1850s and was then called Tynmynydd, The image I used in the colorization may have been a restored structure after the 1940 takeover by the military of the entire area. It is now a soldier's barracks.
