The restaurant http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/3744673 occupies what used to be the Machen-bound or up platform of Bassaleg's Brecon and Merthyr railway station. The lack of any punctuation is interesting. Perhaps this was how railway notices of the period (possibly late Victorian or Edwardian) were written in this area. There is no indication whether or not this notice was originally on this site.
