This is the B5437 which links the A5 south of the River Dee with Carrog village and beyond. On the right is the highly recommended Grouse Inn. The J.W.Lees real ales are well kept, ( enjoyed two pints of John Willie's Bitter!) and Sunday lunches delicious, with friendly service (September 2015). Wikipedia notes that, "Carrog was formerly referred to as Llansanffraid-Glyn Dyfrdwy, as it lies within the parish of Llansanffraid Glyndyfrdwy. It takes its modern name from the Great Western Railway station on the opposite bank of the River Dee, which in turn took its name (possibly to avoid confusion with the adjacent Glyn Dyfrdwy station and that in Llansanffraid Glan Conwy) from the Carrog estate on that bank."
