Sleepers by the railway A pile of disused sleepers, most still with chairs attached, lies at the entrance to what appears to be a maintenance area for the railway. The chairs are all of the two-bolt fixing type used by the Great Western Railway. For a closer look see <a href="https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/3384225">SN6597 : Chair and sleeper detail</a>.

Cutting on the Cambrian line The railway cuts through a large chunk of rock; the left hand side of the rock has also been cut away to improve the line of road.
