Cadw's description
Location
Spanning the Afon Ystrad in the centre of the village.
History
Road bridge built in 1831, probably replacing a ford crossing.
Exterior
Small 2-span road bridge, of rubble construction with small segmental arches and long, rough-dressed voussoirs. Rubble parapet with plain string course below, returned onto simple terminating piers at the splayed approaches; largely-restored slate copings. On the upstream side the parapet has a blind rectangular recess to its centre.
Reason for designation
Listed for its special interest as a vernacular road bridge retaining good character in this village context.
