| Comments: | Bit of
an odd shot this as it appears to concentrate mostly on the service yard
at the back of the shops. From the look of the buses this could have
been taken anytime around the mid-1970s.
I suspect that this image was trying to make the most of the vast areas of "futuristic" concrete, but it does also give a good view of Northville and Pontnewydd. |

red road is Glyndwr Road. On the
right is Llantarnam Grange and the multi-storey car park. On the left is the entrance to the bus station and service areas for the shops. The tall building in the centre is Gwent House. |
