Llanaber

Stone and concrete sea defences The Cambrian Coast Railway runs along the top of the sea wall just where the coast turns slightly northward but that is sufficient to create a pressure point as the sea tries to straighten it out. To ensure safety of the railway a concrete wall has been built on the apex defended to north &amp; south by a large stone barrier.
