Machine House, Maesygwartha Road
Located between Maesygwartha and Gilwern. The road was formerly part of Clydach Railroad, a late 18th century tramroad which connected coal and iron ore mines, limestone quarries and ironworks at the head of the Clydach Gorge with the canal at Gilwern. Wagons descended by gravity (controlled with brakes) and were hauled back up by horses.

Bilingual temporary road sign, Maesygwartha Road, Gilwern
The sign faces Church Road here. http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/5507039 The sign suggests that the Welsh for HGVs is also HGVs which is curious because the Welsh for Heavy goods vehicles is Cerbydau nwyddau trwm. Also, there is no letter V in the standard Welsh alphabet and the letter s does not usually indicate a plural in Welsh.
