A plaque on the bridge carrying Usk Road across the Monmouthshire & Brecon canal shows Brecon Beacons National Park, marking its SE tip. My first thought was that it was an error as it seemed to be too far south. But no, maps confirm that a narrow, peninsula-like strip of the National Park, running south from the Blorenge, does indeed end here. The bridge is known as Jockey Bridge. http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1500152 Ahead are houses in New Inn.
