Caerleon Bridge is a turnpike bridge of 1806-12, built by David Edwards and possibly designed by William Jessop. The bridge is built of coursed squared near ashlar red sandstone, with dressed freestone to the arches and an attached steel and concrete footbridge, added in 1974. There are three ellipical arches with projecting cutwaters on both faces. The downstream face is unaltered and has a small pilaster on either side of the central arch. The upstream face has the cutwaters built up to support the footbridge which is otherwise clear of the main bridge. The parapets of the main bridge are slightly recessed and are stone coped.
