Cadw's description
Location
Situated some 200m SW of Llangwarren Farm and on the boundary with Letterston Community.
Exterior
Narrow verncular bridge (possibly dating from C18) carrying a minor road from A40 over the Afon Cleddau. Rubble stone humped bridge, four small round arches with recessed voussiors. On S side the parapet has edge-on stone coping of uncertain date and cut-water between arches three and four. The N side is extensively repaired, partly refaced and arch four partly rebuilt in brick. There are two C20 cut-waters and this parapet has concrete coping.
Reason for designation
Included as a good regional example of a humped bridge, possibly C18.
