Remains of Pontarddualis Royal Observer Corps Post
This Royal Observer Corps nuclear bunker opened in 1962 and was closed in 1968. Little remains to be seen today apart from the small concrete hatch structure and the slightly raised ground at the top of the mound, under which the bunker was built. The air vents have long since gone and the bunker itself has now been filled in with stones and rubble to prevent access - the top of the ladder can still be seen inside the hatchway.

Derelict access hatch to Pontarddulais Royal Observer Corps bunker
The bunker's hatch structure is all that remains of this Royal Observer Corps bunker - and the bunker itself has been filled in relatively recently with stones and rubble to prevent access. The reason for this bunker's location is obvious, with its view over the Loughor estuary towards Swansea. The reason for the infilling of the bunker way well be due to the proximity of the newly built housing nearby, seen in this image, though a number of nearby bunkers have also been blocked in a similar way by landowners in recent years.

Pontarddulais Station
Pontarddulais station on a cold wet Sunday afternoon. This is the second (and last) service of the day to run north eastwards on the Heart of Wales line and is the only through service of the week to Crewe. The curious platform shape is explained by the fact that originally the platform was an island platform with a junction just behind the location of the photograph. The other line would have then forked off to the left, running down through Gowerton, terminating in Swansea's Victoria Station (now also long gone).
