Pont-y-capel

Built of local rubble stone. A single segmental arch spanning approximately 8.8m, the soffit rising to c2.75m above water level, the arch formed by 47cm deep rubble voussoirs slightly set in under a projecting regulating course, above which flush spandrels extend up into low flush stone-coped parapets. The width of the bridge between parallel sides is 5.5m, providing a 4.6m width slightly humped carriageway between the parapets, which splay sharply outwards at the ends to terminate in square piers. The foundations are recorded as being 5ft (1.525m) deep, of 'country stone laid in hot lime mortar'.
