Traveller's Rest, Bedwellty Road, Aberbargoed

Image: © Robin Drayton Taken: 13 Mar 2013

A former inn on the old road that connected Bargoed with Aberbargoed. The name has been painted over but is clearly readable above the front porch. To the left hand side is the abutment of a former railway bridge that carried a branch of the Brecon & Merthyr railway that ran up the eastern side of the Rhymney Valley as far as Rhymney. Just beyond was the site of Aberbargoed station. National Cycle Route 468 follows the route of the railway northwards to New Tredegar and Abertysswg.
