The road from the village of Gilfach reaches the town of Bargoed. The boundary sign is located between Cardiff Road on the left and Park Place on the right. The Welsh name for the town is Bargod. It is strange that the English name is Bargoed, using an oe formation rare in English. Perhaps the spelling arose because of the analogy of nearby Hengoed (meaning old wood).
