Cadw's description

Situated on boundary between Llangian and Llanengan, over Afon Soch, some 600m S of Llangian.

Early C19 road bridge over the Afon Soch with causeway approach each side. When Edward Hyde Hall visited the area 1809-11 it appears that the only bridge over the Soch was in the village. Marked on 1839 Tithe Map.

Rubble stone long straight causeway with flat rubble parapets coped in roughly squared blocks. Two arches with recessed stone voussoirs, one semicircular, the other slightly pointed and one low opening with slab lintel.

A prominent causeway bridge with two arches.
