Grade II listed Westgate Cottage on the left dates from c1820. Its location on the corner of Merthyr Road and Union Road East suggests it may once have been a turnpike tollhouse. A tollgate is shown in place on the White's Guide plan of 1877. Named The Westgate, the white house next door in Union Road East is also Grade II listed.
