Description

Bala Bridge is mentioned in the fifteenth century. The present bridge, of four segmental arches with triangular cutwaters, is thought to be that depicted in a sketch of 1684. It was doubled in width on the south side in the later twentieth century. It has plain parapets.
The bridge stands at the end of Bala High Street, under the shaddow of the Castle Mound (NPRN 303419).
