Description

Pont Telpyn is a bridge built with a single low segmental span measuring approximately 8 meters, constructed from local limestone. The voussoirs are narrow, about 0.5 meters deep, and there is a thin corbelled course on the extrados. The main masonry is axe-dressed and informally coursed, with a similar design for the parapet. The sides and parapets of the bridge slightly turn out at three of the corners. The carriageway is about 5 meters wide, and the side parapets are around 1 meter high, featuring flat copings that are linked by pairs of bronze cramps.

It experiences an average of 38 freeze-thaw cycles a year, more than 72% of listed buildings. Of these, 21 follow at least 1 mm of rain in the preceding 48 hours. Average temperatures at this location have risen by 0.3°C per decade since 1991.
