Description
Pont Talsarn is a rubble stone bridge featuring three arches and a humped back, with rubble stone parapets. It has three recessed arches made with cut stone voussoirs. The two main piers have cutwaters on both sides, extending up to the height of the arch springings and capped in cement. Above these, there are raised flat piers. The parapets terminate in rough square piers, except at the northeast end.
