Cadw's description
Location
Approximately 0.4km SE of Llanbedr church crossing the Grwyne Fechan and reached by path from the church.
Exterior
Late C18 or C19 single-carriageway bridge of rubble sandstone. Between splayed abutments is a segmental arch with thin voussoirs. The parapets are rebuilt and curve outwards at the ends.
Reason for designation
A good example of a small stone bridge, one of a number crossing the Grwyne rivers, and for group value with Upper Cwm bridge.
