Gate posts at Aberelywn
Unusual construction of gate posts, slabs of slate tied together with iron rods to make a box to hang the (missing) gate on, normal posts in this area were of stone, on right is field entrance with stone posts but no gate (not visible). This road from Rhydowen drives through the farm yard and out through another opening again posts but no gate.

Rhydowen's shop and filling station
Many years ago this house and building was a shop with petrol pump outside, now a transport business. Across the road is Station House and what was Rhydowen Station.

Last remaining level crossing gate latch post
This post is all that remains of the level crossing at Rhydowen Station, on the "Cardi Bach" Whitland to Cardigan Railway, that was closed about 1962. This post was the "latch post" that the crossing gate locked onto, in the shadows and ivy is the lock plate still in its place. There is a pair of posts from the same level crossing, but from the gate on the other side of the road, behind me but not vertical or in their original location, see Image

Rhydowen railway station (site), Ceredigion
Opened in 1875 by the Whitland and Taf Vale Railway, later part of the Great Western Railway, on the line from Whitland to Cardigan, this station closed in 1962.
View south along the former track-bed towards Llanglydwen and Whitland from the former level crossing. The single-platform station was to the far left of the image. No trace apparently remains.

Looking towards Rhydowen over bridge
This bridge has a bit of a "hump" on it! enough for vehicles to meet with an accident.

Recumbent level crossing posts
This is the pair of gate posts from the level crossing at Rhydowen Station, now holding back Mr. Wilshaw's fire wood stock. The hinges are visible on the upper post with brackets and latch still in place on the lower post. Many thanks to Mr & Mrs C Wilshaw for permission to photograph these remnants of "Cardi Bach" Railway, that closed about 1962, and the track was removed a couple of years later. I understand the track was exported abroad and relaid.
