Description

Pont Y Mister is a river bridge featuring two unequal arches. It is constructed of rubble with dressed stone used for the river arches, and it has flat or saddle back coping stones along the parapet. The two arches are separated by a cutwater and both are elliptical in shape. The arch on the uphill side is lower and has a stringcourse above it, which reappears at a different level for a short distance over the spandrel of the wider downhill arch.

Local climate

Pont Y Mister sits in a wetter-than-average part of the UK, with an average of 1,000 mm of rain a year. This makes it wetter than 80% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is greater than that of 77% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 33 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 56% of listed buildings. Of these, 13 follow at least 1 mm of rain in the preceding 48 hours. Average temperatures at this location have risen by 0.3°C per decade since 1991.

Averages for 1991–2020; temperature trend 1991–2025. Figures describe the wider area (a grid cell of roughly 10 km), not the individual site. Contains modified Copernicus Climate Change Service information 2026.
