Description
Pont Lliw is a two-span road bridge dating from the 19th century, featuring associated revetments on both the left and right sides, with the right side including a smaller arch that serves as a flood arch. The main bridge is constructed of coursed and dressed slatestone and has two elegant depressed arches, which are adorned with slatestone ashlar voussoirs and projecting keys. Triangular cutwaters are present on both the upstream and downstream sides, with diminishing courses leading to the top, where they end in flat pilaster sections that support the parapet. Additional flat pilasters are located at both ends of the bridge. The parapet rises slightly in the center, following the gentle curve of the carriageway, and features rough-dressed coping stones along with a stringcourse.
The reveted sections on either side are made of rubble. The right side, which contains the flood arch, features a segmental arch with rough-dressed voussoirs and sandstone parapet copings on the upriver side, while the remaining sections have rough-dressed slatestone. The left side, extending beyond the main bridge section, has similar sloped rubble revetments with slatestone copings. On the upriver left side, there is a pedestrian opening with five descending steps that lead to a footpath.
