Description

Pont Penllyn is a bridge constructed from irregularly coursed and dressed rubblestone. It features simple coping, a slate-slab string course, and arch-rings with voussoirs that form four segmental arches. On the east side, there are cutwaters, and the corners of the bridge are marked by tapering circular piers.
