Dist:0.4km<br/>Spiritual and bodily nourishment side by side. Capel Seion (Baptist) built 1900; the shop supplies meat-and-two-veg for Sunday dinner after the service.

Dist:0.4km<br/>The station was built in 1875 to the design of J.W.Szlumper who was surveyor for the county of Cardigan and also a railway engineer responsible for several Welsh lines.
The goods sheds has become part of the industrial estate while the station itself is now a private dwelling.

Dist:0.4km<br/>Probably some of the earlier housing from the development of the village following the arrival of the railway. The green house appears still to have its original windows.

Dist:0.4km<br/>The Market hall was built shortly before WW1 and the plaque on the right is the Roll of Honour to the local men who died in both wars: 50 in the first, 17 in the second.
The stained glass windows depict, in the middle, Twm Carnabath, a local man reputed to be leader of the Rebecca rioters, and on either side figures representing technology, industry and craft.

Dist:0.4km<br/>The NFU, the post office and the Chinese take-away...some of the essential services in this upland community in Wales' wild west.

This street was once the way to the station but even though the railway line has gone the village retains its importance in the area with a Welsh-medium secondary school, small rural businesses and light industry.

Dist:0.5km<br/>Frenni Food Fair is an annual summer event of recent years that takes place in the market hall at Crymych. Most of the participants, both producers and purchasers, are local, but with a sprinkling of visitors from further afield.

Dist:0.5km<br/>It must have been a thrill to see the Cardigan to Whitland train emerging from this tunnel right into the station at this point.
Now it has become the backdrop to greenhouses and a duckpond, someone having made imaginative use of the old cutting.

Dist:0.5km<br/>The tourist information point next to the market hall looks like being eclipsed by this handy gossip station for local people!
