Entrance to American Gardens, Penygarn, Pontypool
This entrance from Channel View into American Gardens is at the NW edge of Pontypool Park.
New World imports include giant redwoods from California and monkey puzzle trees from Chile. Monkey puzzles (Araucaria araucana) now common in the UK, were a novelty when planted here in the 1850s, when the site was known as the American Grounds.

Folly View houses, Pontypool
Houses on the north side of Folly View, near the Channel View end.
I reached this point after a long, steep climb up from the central shopping area of Pontypool, so it's not surprising that views abound hereabouts!
