Description

Pont Dol-y-Moch is a notable 4-arched bridge, constructed from rubble. It features wide segmental arches with arch rings and rough-dressed voussoirs. The bridge has rubble cutwaters on both sides, along with contemporary stone benches in the central refuges. The low rubble parapets are topped with large original coping stones and curve outwardly at both ends. The roadway is slightly cambered and tarmacked.
