Site of Llandysul Station Yard The new Llandysul bypass, on the right,goes across the site of Llandysul Station, closed as part of the Beeching Plan.  The long building on the left is all that is left of the station's goods facilities.  Sidings ran alongside and wagons were unloaded directly into them.

Stranded at Llandysul! Adventure Coachlines operate the once a day T1c (TrawsCymru) service from Aberystwyth to Cardiff. Unfortunately, on the day that I chose to use it, the coach came to a halt at Llandysul and could go no further. An air leak prevented the doors from closing, so it was immobilised. A local mechanic was summoned, but he was unable to fix the problem. Eventually, after a three-hour wait, a replacement coach arrived from Aberystwyth. Looking on the bright side, I was able to score a Geograph personal point as I have previously driven through Llandysul but never stopped there!

Afon Teifi and the surviving part of Allt-y-cafn Mills, Pentre Cwrt These mills were developed from the 1860s by John Lloyd Davies. (Information from 'The Buildings of Wales') On the 1889 1:2500 map this was the only building shown, captioned 'Allt-y-cafn Factory (Woollen)' It is being renovated, presumably for housing.  The line across the river is a weir, which surprisingly is not shown on the 1889 map but is on the 1906 edition, on which the building has become 'Alltcavan Mills (Woollen)'.
