Remains of Pentrepiod Halt railway station, Torfaen
Viewed from Pentrepiod Road in November 2018. A stone platform remains alongside what is now a footpath and cycleway. The station was on the Great Western Railway Newport-Pontypool-Blaenavon-Brynmawr Eastern Valley Upper Level line which opened to passengers in 1879. Pentrepiod Halt (in what was at that time Monmouthshire) opened in 1912. Passenger services along the entire route were withdrawn in May 1941, ostensibly as a wartime economy measure. The route did not reopen after the end of the war.
