Description

The suspension bridge at Abercamlais is a Grade II listed structure made of iron. It features iron rods with a thin flat iron strip for the decking. On each side of the bridge, there are two long iron rods bolted to cast-iron posts at either end. Thick wire hangers are wound around both rods and extend downwards to support flat pieces of iron beneath the decking, which consists of four parallel strips of iron.

The cast-iron posts are slender and splayed away from each other, connected at the top by a hooped piece of iron rod. Each post has four holes: two for the main rods and two for diagonal outer rods that run parallel into the ground, with the upper ends bolted just below each of the main rods. An iron gate is located at the southern end of the bridge.
