Community House, Eton Road, Newport NP19 0BL
We are on the corner of Eton Road and Corporation Road. You will see a number of colourful images attached to brown fencing around the garden and Monumental Stone Masons opposite on the corner. Also across the road, opposite the junction on Corporation Road, is a landmark, bright white and grey building.
