Don’t worry too much. Firstly the deeds may be retained by your lender or they could be in the possession of the solicitor who handled the purchase. Secondly in all probability the property will be recorded at the land registry and you will be able to establish that you are the registered owner by your conveyancing lawyers procuring up to date copy of the land registers. Nearly all conveyancing in Pontypool involves registered property but in the unlikely event that your property is unregistered it is more problematic but is resolvable.
