Floral display on Penparcau Road. On the other side of the road is the milestone in Image and Image, one of three similar stones situated a mile from Aberystwyth on each of the main roads into the town, all dating from the 19th century. See Image and Image for the sites of the other two, in Penglais Road and Quebec Road respectively. Above the milestone are houses in Maes Maelor, part of the post war(?) estate built on the lower slopes of Pendinas. On the right are houses in the section of Penparcau Road named First Avenue, for consistency with the other roads in the 1930s(?) estate below it, imaginatively called Second, Third, Fourth and Fifth Avenue.
