Description
A bridge carrying the road from Golden Grove village to Llangathen across the River Towy. A high arched stone bridge of three spans, it was built near the site of the former Cilsan ferry. Cadw gives a probably date of c.1865 and certainly by 1886, however there was a bridge in existence by 1850, repaired in 1854. The 1839 Tithe map does not show a bridge but does show the newly built approach road on the nLlangathen side of the river.
