Ponthenry railway station

[1] It was on the Burry Port and Gwendraeth Valley Railway with Pontyates located to the south and Pontyberem to the north of Kidwelly Junction.

[6] In 1913 the station lay on a single track line to the north of the overbridge with a platform to the west and a small waiting room and ticket office.

The large Ponthenry Colliery lay to the north with extensive sidings and internal rail network.

Later maps and photographs show that the station moved to the south of the overbridge and despite being a single track it had two platforms.

The line was partly built on the old Kidwelly and Llanelly Canal however at Ponthenri an incline plane was present as remembered in the name of a local public house, the 'Incline Inn'.
