Description
Llandinam Bridge is a Grade II* listed structure built of cast iron, featuring a single segmental arch that spans 27 meters. The bridge has three ribs, each consisting of an arch ring, which supports a single carriageway deck through raking struts. The arch rings are made up of segments that form five cusped panels, while the struts create a lattice work pattern, secured by circular rods and cross members.
At deck level, there is a panel-fronted horizontal girder to which cast iron railings with a mid rail are attached, featuring cusping on alternate panels at the top. The almost flat running surface, which slopes slightly to the west, is approximately 3.4 meters wide. On the downstream side at the east end, the girder has the inscription 'Thomas Penson County Surveyor', and on the upstream side, it reads 'Hawarden Iron Works'. Both sides at the west end display the date '1846'.
The railings at the west end extend and curve outward towards the former railway station, and on the upstream side, they include an iron diamond-shaped loading restriction sign from Montgomeryshire County Council, dated 1906, limiting the superimposed axle weight to 3 tons. At the east end, there are undressed stone parapets at the corners, with railings that continue behind the statue of David Davies. The bridge is supported by raking abutments made of large ashlar blocks that sweep out to terminal piers.
