Description
Two-arched coursed rubble sandstone-built accommodation bridge over the Glamorganshire Canal (nprn 34425), dating from about 1790. The main arch is over the canal and there is a smaller arch, which appears to be later, at a higher level on the east side, probably to accommodate a tramroad running parallel to the canal.
Site visited B.A.Malaws, RCAHMW, October 1979.
