Behind Werngifford are the remains of the tramroad built in the early C19th. It formerly connected with the Llanfihangel Tramroad to form a through route between Abergavenny and Hereford until replaced by the modern railway in 1854. The original proposals of 1792 were for a canal on this route but that was never built.
