Cadw's description
Location
Situated some 100m NE of Castle Malgwyn.
Exterior
Late C18 or early C19, two bridges over the Afon Morgennau, one exceptionally broad carrying the carriage drive, the other giving access to the stables. The first, more of a short tunnel, has broad elliptical arches with recessed arch rings in cut stone and no parapets. The second is a single elliptical arch with rubble stone parapets.
Reason for designation
Included for group value with the house and stables. Presumably built at the time of the house c.1795 for Sir Benjamin Hammet.
