This post is all that remains of the level crossing at Rhydowen Station, on the "Cardi Bach" Whitland to Cardigan Railway, that was closed about 1962. This post was the "latch post" that the crossing gate locked onto, in the shadows and ivy is the lock plate still in its place. There is a pair of posts from the same level crossing, but from the gate on the other side of the road, behind me but not vertical or in their original location, see Image
