This cast iron arch bridge spans 90 feet over the Severn River. It has three ribs which are stiffened by cross-members connecting them. The spandrels are filled with an open X pattern similar to Telford’s Mythe Bridge at Tewksbury. It was the first cast iron bridge in the county and was cast by Hawarden Ironworks and designed by the County Surveyor, Thomas Penson, who also designed the bridges at Abermule and Caer Howel.
