Description
Cil-cewydd Bridge is a Grade II listed structure built with snecked squared rubble facings on a brick base, featuring an ashlar parapet. The bridge has four equal segmental spans supported by three water piers, which are tapered and keeled both upstream and downstream. A capping string course marks the point from which the arches spring. Each arch is made of scappled and coursed-in voussoirs with a margin-drafted intrados, and the stones are numbered I to XXIII on the unembellished center stone. Above a scappled projecting string, there is a three-course ashlar parapet that tapers down at the Forden end, which is the only end equipped with an iron rail supported by clasping brackets. The rail on the north side has been replaced. The battered abutments are curved in plan, and the parapet slopes down to ground level. The soffit of each arch is constructed of brickwork.
