Part of the Pontypridd,Caerphilly and Newport Railway. The line closed to passengers in September 1956. There was no platform - just a wooden waiting shelter. You can't see it in this shot, but it is possible to trace the path leading down from the bridge to the site of the halt. Nowadays the line is used as part of the Celtic Trail/Taff Trail.
