This is another incorrectly identified image which Shows Monmouth when it has been attributed to being Abergavenny. There was no Station at Abergavenny alongside the River Usk. It Monmouth the station was alongside the River Wye as shown.

You are right - it's Monmouth, long before the trunk road was built on the bank of the Wye.
