Definitely not Monmouth. Street names/patterns and railway sidings all very different |

 This is a shot of Abergavenny Brecon Road incorrectly identified as Monmouth. |

This is an image of Abergavenny and not Monmouth. |

This is definitely Abergavenny - the railway bridge in the top middle is spanning Chapel Rd and Brecon Rd, plus goods sidings opposite where the Cantref Inn is now. |

I agree. I'm not convinced that this is Monmouth! The street layout doesn't look correct and there appears to be a railway bridge (top centre) - the two lines that ran into Monmouth had stations on the outskirts of the town. |

Is this Monmouth - does not look right to me? It looks more like Abergavenny with whats now Linda Vista Gardens and Castle Meadows in the forefront? |
