A478 road
The A478 road is a major route in the Welsh counties of Pembrokeshire and Carmarthenshire, connecting Cardigan (junction with the A487 Cardigan bypass) and Tenby.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.sabre-roads.org.uk/wiki/index.php?title=A478 )〕 The road crosses the Preseli Hills and for almost all of its route winds through farmland. ==History== The northern two-thirds of the A478 was for some centuries a drovers' road transporting goods and livestock from north Pembrokeshire and Ireland (Cardigan was then a port) before the coming of the railways in the mid-19th century. The road was turnpiked probably in the 18th century. There have been only minor and local deviations in the route, principally to improve river crossings and eliminate dangerous bends. Short sections of the original road, little more than a country lane, can still be seen, as can some early stone bridges.
