Benchmark on wall by Hope railway bridge, Fagl Lane Ordnance Survey benchmark on the stone wall by the south parapet of Hope railway bridge in Fagl Lane. Levelled at 87.063m above Newlyn Datum, verified 1959. The bridge creates an 'S' bend in the road and judging by the damage to the adjacent metal box the cut mark has done well to survive.

Caergwrle's Packhorse Bridge/Y Bont Pynfarch Late afternoon on the mid 17th century packhorse bridge at Caergwrle. One of the finest examples of its type in Wales it was restored in 2001 after flood damage. It features low walls to allow for the passage of bulging side packs, and the two triangular recesses allow pedestrians to step out of the way of a packhorse train.
