Western portal of the Spittal road tunnel This amazing old redbrick tunnel carries the road under the mighty rail embankment. A bit hairy to walk through, with cars passing from both directions, (a little faster than perfect good sense may dictate) and lit even in broad daylight in summer to aid visibility.

Corrugated village hall in Treffgarne I believe that this old corrugated iron building served as church hall and village hall, and in its time possibly a youth club and other uses by various local groups etc. An extension seems to have gone from the near end wall. It has seen better days but I&#039;m sure is worth preserving as sadly a lot of these old corrugated huts have become too dilapidated to save.
