Gatekeeper's cottage
The level crossing was constructed when the railway line was extended to the current terminus in 1909 from the original 1869 terminus. The barriers are now fully automatic so the cottage is now in private hands.

Arwydd wrth y Groesfan - Sign at the Level Crossing
A useful explanation of the terms "large" and "slow" - though a driver would have to stop to read all the information here. The first level crossing after trains leave Pwllheli station.

The final section of the Cambrian Coast Line
The final section, both geographically and historically. Viewed from the level crossing at the east of Pwllheli, this is the 1909 extension of the line into the new terminus and is built on reclaimed land at the north of Pwllheli harbour. It seems hardly credible in these days of a standard 2-hourly service pattern, but the Great Western Railway doubled-tracked this section to increase capacity. The double track is now just a long run-round loop and is only used to accommodate locomotive hauled charter trains and the summer steam specials.
