Old disused railway

Image: © Hywel Williams Taken: 29 Sep 2006

Part of the Burry Port & Gwendraeth Valley railway, much of this line has now been lifted. It served passengers until 1953, but continued as a mineral line until 1996 when the line closed. It was considered for restoration, but the work to bring it back into operation was considerable and in the end it was closed.
