I can't make our what the wording is on the dead end sign. Is it Welsh?

My JPEG-fu suggests it says "Except cycles", but it's pretty marginal. This would suggest it's on a cycle track. No NCN sticker though

Yes it’s on Street view. No it’s not the Viaduct you mention.

It’s English and says except cycles. Just checked and Street view is before it became a dead end for motor vehicles.

Another on same road from other side
I paddled a group of scouts over than a few months ago, we had kayaked down the Dee including some very tricky bits like the town falls where quite a few swam. However, it was paddling over this flat water to get back to the minibus that freaked me out. I was like a mother goose telling them to stay away from the edge and to paddle carefully. The height just made me go nuts for their safety despite the fact is is pretty damn safe and you would have to try pretty hard to fall out of the kayak over the raised edge.Looks scarier than it will have been. On a relatively still day a SUP is very stable and will have been quite straight forward unless he didn’t have a head for heights! I wouldn’t do It though - I’m no adrenaline junky

The lack of a T sign put me off but @Edwardoka pipped me.
I never actually noticed your previous post, it was the second image that led me to google "british rail viaducts electrified", for which this is the top entry. You guessed correctly, and with only one image, so I think it's only fair that you can have this one!

@Edwardoka No. I wavered so it is yours. 
(Plus I’ve posted a couple recently)
@ColinJ. You’ve answered yet another query. You need to change your name to ColinJ-PI.

Ok, if you insist...
I have one so fiendishly difficult, it will tax the very finest minds of CC. To give you a fighting chance, I will postan image in both directions two images near each other.
NAME THAT ROAD!
Confession: these were taken in the era before smartphones and online routing.As such, I don't actually know what road this is on.
I believe I know what county it's in, based upon the timestamps on the "Welcome to" signs also on this camera roll.
And no, I have absolutely no idea why I took these photos. A 12% climb hardly seems like a good reason to get the camera out.
EDIT: I have found it! I can sadly confirm that my memory is faulty - the second picture is NOT in fact taken in the same location as the first picture, but rather halfway up the hill and facing in the same direction.

There's a drive/road on the right in the second picture. With possibly a third, on opposite the one you can see in the first picture.

Why the queues, I wonder? Maybe the road goes round the corner into a little village, or over a narrow bridge...
