Cwmbran Info: Image of the Month: March 2008 

 

March 2008  
Location: Newport Road (opposite Burton's Biscuits), Llantarnam, Cwmbran
Subject: Llantarnam Abbey boundary wall collapse
Comment: An unusual site: a section of the very sturdy boundary wall which surrounds the Abbey's grounds has gone (creating mixed rubble and large slabs).  It also appears that subsidence has taken half the pavement with it too.  Does anyone know why this is?  Is it related to the recent looking new tarmac alongside?  One interesting thing though, it has exposed a lovely view of the little-used field with daffodils and wild primroses dotted around.
