The Watton [8] |
|
Although not shown
on this map, the 'Hay Railway' or tramroad,
which used horse-drawn wagons running on iron rails, had its Brecon terminus
at Watton wharf, marked 5 above. There
the 'trams' would be loaded with coal
and other goods transferred from the canal barges for delivery to Hay
and other places along the line of the tramroad.
