Cadw's description
Location
Bridge over the River Alyn, on the outskirts of village of Llandegla on the minor road leading W past church.
Exterior
Small mid-C19 road bridge. Random rubble. Single, semi-circular arch with slightly recessed stone voussoirs and projecting keystone. Parapet walls are built from rock-faced rubble stone with cambered stone copings. Across the length of the bridge the walls are, in plan, parallel but at the approaches splay out to terminate in square stone piers at each end.
Reason for designation
A well-proportioned C19 road bridge, part of an attractive Victorian group in the centre of Llandega village, which also includes the listed church and school.
