The old red sandstone bridge was built between 1746 and 1747. It has five arches and was widened in 1836-7, although it might not feel like it if traffic is busy! If you opt for the footpath, please dismount.

very busy traffic through route as one of the few places you can cross the Usk. Beautiful views up and down the valley. Take a moment as you cycle over.
