Dist:0.3km<br/>So says the blue notice, but in its present state the road is unsuitable for all vehicles except 4 wheel drives. Nor is the other road, here turning to the right, much better.

Dist:0.3km<br/>It is nearly the shortest day of the year and the low winter sun sets early here.

Dist:0.4km<br/>This is the scene on this minor road after a mere 0.7 inches (2cm) of rain fell overnight after a dry spell of weather. Cars do not have a problem because the pool is quite shallow but walkers are liable to get their feet wet! The road looks like this for much of the time in winter.

Dist:0.4km<br/>When the new Llandysul bypass was built in 2009, part of the route lay along a disused railway track. The coal merchant, J L Jones, previously located at the Llandysul station site, was forced to relocate.

Dist:0.5km<br/>It is 3pm in early January and the sun has already left part of Pontyweli. Llandysul is on the other side of the River Teifi and still basking in chilly afternoon sunshine.

Dist:0.5km<br/>Late 18th or early 19th century farmhouse with Victorian extension on far end.

Dist:0.6km<br/>Arched doorway and slit window in old farm building.

Dist:0.6km<br/>Generations of cattle have traversed this steep land, creating horizontal paths. Gorse is encroaching in some parts.

Dist:0.6km<br/>This farm has a large dairy herd and makes use of the flat ground in this wider part of the Teifi Valley. Parts of the disused railway line between the farm and the river have been bulldozed to enlarge the fields on either side. The steep slope on the far side of the river is clothed in natural woodland.

Dist:0.8km<br/>Before the Llandysul bypass was built this was the track of a closed railway line, Llandysul station was just beyond the bridge and the stationmaster lived close by.

Dist:0.8km<br/>Last days of Llandysul station, the end of the line when it opened in 1865. It was called the Carmarthen and Cardigan railway but never reached Cardigan, though it was extended under this bridge as far as Newcastle Emlyn in 1895. It saw its last train in 1973 and in 2008 is about to be overwhelmed by the new Llandysul bypass. The stationmaster's house overlooked the track.

Dist:0.8km<br/>The newly completed bypass is now open.
