CLYDACH TRAMWAY BRIDGE “Smart’s Bridge” Gwent 1824 SO131 228 {N51o 48’ 45.6” W3o 7’ 12.4”}
This charming bridge, decorated with gothic arches in its spandrels, carried the tracks into the at Clydach Ironworks. The ruins of the furnaces and forges in the glen complement its gothic theme. Just after crossing the Monmouth Canal on the A465 in the village of Gilwern, look on the left for the entrance to a modest county park which was once the site of the famous Clydach Works. Go to the very far end of the park at the head of the little meadow to find the bridge.
