Raglan Terrace, Abergavenny
A row of four houses set back from the east side of the A40, near the Heads of the Valleys Road roundabout at the SE edge of Abergavenny. A 1940s map shows that the course of the A40 ran alongside these houses at that time. Its course was realigned when the Heads of the Valleys Road was built.
