Dist:0.6km<br/>This old narrow bridge, today part of a pedestrian and cyclist trail, is a former aqueduct completed in 1825 to bring water to power the waterwheels of the Cwmavon ironworks. The road crosses the River Afan lower down on the valley floor. This is the eastern of two high-level bridges at the village: the other being a former railway viaduct.

Dist:0.7km<br/>This picture taken from a viaduct in Pontrhydyfen shows Richard Burton's childhood home in the foreground. Richard's house is the first of the two terrace houses below. Richard Burton, CBE (10 November 1925 – 5 August 1984) was a Welsh actor. He was nominated seven times for an Academy Award (without success) and was at one time the highest-paid actor in Hollywood. He remains closely associated in the public consciousness with his second wife, actress Elizabeth Taylor; the couple's turbulent relationship was rarely out of the news.

Dist:0.9km<br/>A view from the slopes of Mynydd Penhydd taking in parts of three valleys. Upper areas of Cwm Ifan-bach lie relatively close to the camera, with some of the west slope of the valley prominent to the left of the picture in the foreground. The mountain whose steep forested slopes are seen in the middle of the photograph and which is seen extending rightwards to the edge of the picture is Mynydd Pen-rhys. Towards the east (the right of the picture) the slopes of this mountain seen lie at the north side of Cwm Afan; further west they make up a side of Cwm Pelenna. Other areas of the latter valley are seen in shade immediately to the left of the mountain.
