Monnow Way, NEWPORT, NP20 7DB

Monnow Way is the main road around the Bettws estate. It forms a loop around the estate : the two ends of the loop meet at the junction with Bettws Lane. This view is of the "high-numbered" (houses) end of Monnow Way, heading north away from Bettws Lane. The turning for the Merry Miller pub http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1572669 is on the left, opposite Texaco.

Malpas Brook flowing away from the Monnow Way bridge. From here, the Brook takes a meandering course towards Crindau Pill and the River Usk.

The highest odd-numbered house on Monnow Way, number 719, is part of this block of houses.

Located on Monnow Way, near the Bettws Lane junction. At the rear of the premises is a Londis Express store.

The sign on Monnow Way, Bettws claims that this is the Tregwylim Close stop, and shows five bus route numbers, none of which serve this area. A Google Earth street view taken some time earlier shows a tatty old shelter, so it looks like when this newer one was removed from Tregwilym (note the correct spelling) Close in Rogerstone, several kilometres away, and transplanted here, no-one bothered to replace the sign!

On the corner of Old Mill Court and Monnow Way. The plaque on the wall records that the cog was recovered during preparation works undertaken on the site of the former Merry Miller public house by developers Morganstone. The driving cog transferred power from the water wheel to the grindstone mechanism. It was part of Malpas Mill constructed in the mid to late 19th century. The mill was demolished many decades ago.
