Bailey's Tramroad and the Merthyr, Tredegar and Abergavenny Railway in Wales

[rogerfarnworth]

A visit to Abergavenny on 25th April 2022 for a meeting gave me an hour so so to start a look at the historic transport hub that is the village of Govilon where Bailey's Tramroad, and the Llanvihangel Tramroad met on the side of the Monmouthshire and Brecon Canal. The site also includes the remains of the later Heads of the Valley Railway Line.

The linked post comes from just an hour spent in Govilon, following the line of the railway, the Canal and Bailey's Tramroad.

A return visit to Govilon included a visit to private land around the location of the Ironworks to the West of the village, the Merthyr, Tredegar and Abergavenny Railway, and Bailey's Tramroad. ...

This is again only a short length of Bailey's Tramroad. There is more to come in due course.

Good stuff Roger - another interesting travel post.  Everything looks so quaint and, well, perfect.  One almost expects to see hobbits going about their business!  Very nice.
