Discover this old clapper bridge, located in the tiny hamlet of Castle upon Alun in the Vale of Glamorgan.

The term 'clapper bridge' derives its name from the sound that horses and donkeys hooves would have made whilst trotting over it in times gone by.

It's a fascinating piece of history and a wonderful gem to stumble across in your adventures through this corner of South Wales.

There is a ford nearby, too, which features a string of stepping stones and a nice place to sit down and eat some lunch.
