BUCKLANDS SUSPENSION BR. Nr. Pen y pont, Wales PRIVATE PROPERTY N51o 52’ 51.4” W3o 16’ 7.3”
There is a derelict suspension bridge spanning the Usk River on the Bucklands Estate that was built by “Rowell London” in the very early 20th century. It give access to the farm lands on the south side of the property from the main buildings on the north bank. The road bed consists of planks laid down on iron cross bars. There are high towers to carry the cables topped by decorative finials. It is similar in design and execution to the Llanstephan Bridge over the Wye not far away. Evidently, it was leased to an anglers’ club for many years and is no longer in use.
