Glen Oak House near Usk
Maps I've consulted do not show at which point Usk Road (from Gwehelog) is renamed Monmouth Road, Usk, so this house's address may be either of these roads. The house is on the south side of the road, about 500 metres east of the NE edge of residential Usk, opposite the shared entrance drive to Braeside and Westwinds.

Entrance to natural burial ground, Usk Castle Chase
Located on the north side of Usk Road, about a kilometre NE of the NE edge of residential Usk.
Usk Natural Burial Meadow is a large pasture surrounded on three sides by the woods of Usk Castle Chase. It is intended for simple burials using a coffin or shroud made from natural materials. There are no gravestones nor other markers in the pasture to indicate the exact place of burial. Instead, a certificate is issued after each burial, recording the precise location.

Wandering drivers, Usk Road
From the evidence of the large white arrows on the road surface, it appears that drivers along this section of Usk Road, adjacent to Newbarn Wood, have a tendency to stray to the wrong side of the road.
