Cadw's description
Location
Situated in Dol-y-bont, on minor road running NE from B 4353, from junction some 1.5 km SE of Borth.
History
Probably mid to later C18, road bridge over the Afon Leri.
Exterior
Rubble stone single-arched bridge of hump-backed type. Broad elliptical arch with stone voussoirs and arch ring. Very thin crown to arch, rubble stone parapets with heavy stone coping.
Reason for designation
A good example of broad span arch construction, remarkable for the thinness of the arch crown.
