WW2 pillbox overlooking the River Gavenny
View looks south-westwards. This is a variant pillbox in a commanding position near the road bridge carrying the B4521 over the River Gavenny near Abergavenny. The embrasures indicate it was designed to repel an attacking force from the north. Presumably this pillbox formed part of the 'Usk Stopline' defences constructed in 1940-41 (the river Usk flows through Abergavenny some 1.5 miles to the south).

Afon Gafenni from Ross Road
The B4521 Ross Road out of Abergavenny crosses the Afon Gafenni / Gavenny River by means of a stone arch bridge from the parapet of which can be seen the gushing waters of the river as they run over their rocky bed cut into the local Old Red Sandstone ('St Maughan's Formation' mudstones and sandstones). Abergavenny gets its (English!) name from its site at the point where this river enters the Afon Wysg / River Usk. The Welsh name is 'Y Fenni'.
