Dist:0.7km<br/>The building of a bypass to the west of Llandysul along the course of the disused railway track has meant that the bridge over the railway has had to be demolished and here is the new bridge under construction. Traffic on the minor road is temporarily diverted to a ramp from which this photograph was taken.

Dist:0.7km<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:0.7km<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:0.7km<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:0.7km<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:0.7km<br/>The Power House provided electricity for the whole area of Llandysul from the year 1920. It took water from the River Teifi to power its generators. It is now used as a community centre for cultural and artistic activities. This fast flowing stretch of river is used for canoeing including slalom events.

Dist:0.8km<br/>It is nearly the shortest day of the year and the low winter sun sets early here.
