Description

Abercamlais Bridge, also known as Pont Abercamlais, is a large rubble stone bridge built with four broad segmental arches. The arches feature cut stone voussoirs and are supported by elongated hexagonal piers. On the eastern side, the cutwaters rise to form three pedestrian refuges. The dimensions of the arches include two measuring 8.5 meters (28 feet), one at 8 meters (26 feet), and one at 4.5 meters (15 feet).

The widened western side has arches where the stone voussoirs meet the cutwaters, which are chamfered off below the level of the parapet, except for the northern cutwater that extends up to form a pedestrian refuge. The eastern parapet is made of squared stone with flat copings and connects to a section of stone wall to the north. This wall features a basket-arched doorway framed by a pediment of cut tooled stone, complete with stone voussoirs. The western parapet has rougher coping stones. At the southern end of the bridge, there is a large single stone pier that includes a wrought iron gate.
