Debris from the flooding Usk The Afon Wysg/River usk rises and falls rapidly in response to heavy rain.  This field beside the A40 Abergavenny/Brecon road is littered with debris from earlier in the day when the swollen river extended across the full width of its floodplain.  The Romans avoided flooding problems by building their road over the top of the hill known as Yr Allt in the background.

Gethinog Lift Bridge Bridge no 149 is the middle one of three consecutive lift bridges on the stretch of the Monmouthshire and Brecon Canal between Talybont-on-Usk and Pencelli. They are provided for farmers to allow the movement of livestock and are left up or down according to their requirements. Boaters should leave them as they find them; in this case the bridge has been left in the down position and boaters need to raise it manually using a windlass.
