Craig-yr-Hafod Tramroad
The track heading down and right is what remains of a tramroad established in the early nineteenth century taking limestone from nearby quarries down to a canalside limekiln near Llanellen. This is one of the shorter and less well-known of a series of tramroads which were constructed under the Act of Parliament which established the Brecknock & Abergavenny Canal. The track heading up and left is a route heading through open moorland for Blorenge and the minor road past Foxhunter's car park.
