Trig pillar above Penclawdd
Obviously no longer in use, this trig pillar is now part of a hedgerow across the high point of the hill.
This is the view off towards the hills in the northwest of the Gower peninsula. I suspect the trig point was of more use surveying the Loughor estuary and Llanelli coast to the north. Due to the low level of land on the south side of the hedge I couldn't get that shot.

Remains of the Penclawdd Railway Platform
Built as a branch of the Llanelli Railway & Dock Company. Freight and passenger services used the line, passengers changing at Gowerton for Swansea. It used to be really busy with coal traffic but as coal mining declined and a new road was built from Gowerton to Llanrhidian in the 1920's, passenger numbers declined and the service was stopped apart from daily freight services.

View towards Pen-clawdd during tidal flooding
A view towards Pen-clawdd during dusk as the unusually high (autumnal) spring tides bring the sea water over the saltmarshes to cover land (and then roads) not normally covered by sea water.
