This is a shot of Carmarthen Bridge over the River Towy and not Newcastle Emlyn as officially recorded. There are a group of shots involved.

Well done JohnB. The view is looking east from Llanstephan Road

And not Newcastle Emlyn. Needs amending.

This is not Newcastle Emlyn. It's the former Cow & Gate, latterly Dairy Crest, creamery, adjacent to the South Wales main railway line in Johnstown, Carmarthen. All the views of this location I have found so far are:
