 It would then descend via Gilfachreda to enter New Quay via the coastal plain to enter the town at a higher level to terminate near the current public library and car park, plus there may have been a steeply graded branch behind George Street and the present-day lifeboat station to reach the harbour.It was to be a branch of the Aberayron line, diverging about 2 miles inland from Aberayron, and with significant gradients planned it would have consequently high operating costs.This was discussed with the County Council, in the interests of securing a grant from them; the mile New Quay branch added £63,000 to the cost estimates.
