A40 bridge on Clytha Road
The 'new' A40 as I think of it, the dual carriageway between Raglan and Abergavenny, crosses the old road on this bridge. I decided to take the old road for a change and to explore some of the area that you normally just whiz through.

The Cripple Creek Inn near Raglan, Monmouthshire
One of those eateries that seems to always do well, despite the recent trading conditions even, serving up mid-market expectations to a happy clientele, mainly untroubled by considerations such as Michelin stars, celebrity chefs, gastro-pub terminology and spicy pricing. Hence its consistent performance.

Slow down - bend ahead, Clytha Road near Raglan
This was formerly the route of the A40, which is now along a nearby dual carriageway. A 1940s map shows that there has been some minor realignments of the old A40 in this area, no doubt at the time of the construction of the dual carriageway.
