A surviving stretch of trackbed of the long-dismantled Pyle to Porthcawl branch line which closed to all traffic in 1965. At one time, the Dyffryn Llynfi and Porthcawl Railway ran here. The picture was taken on the bridge at the western end of the lane Heol-y-Splot which runs to Cornelly Quarry from the roundabout at the southern end of the village.
