Due to his advanced age, my great grandpa and wife decided to let their home & lands, Cynghordy Hall, near Llandovery in Carmarthenshire, Wales and took up residence in a smaller home and property in Shropshire. This placed them nearer the families of Charles Backhouse Robinson and Nicholas Robinson. The Robinsons were lifelong friends of WP Jeffreys (his first wife was Agnes Robinson) and Mrs. Robinson was Frances' sister-in-law, so there were many connections there.
For many years and until grandpa's death in 1920, they resided at The Forde, Ashford Carbonell, near Ludlow, Shropshire. The Forde was listed for sale in recent years and the color pictures below came from the real estate listing found online. First, here's a vintage photo of Walter Powell Jeffreys taken on the grounds at The Forde:
