Built in early C19 to the specification of Thomas Penson, County Surveyor of Denbigh under contract dated 1st May 1822. According to the contract the bridge replaced a ruinous one nearby and was to incorporate salvaged stone from the old bridge as well as new stone from quarries near Dolwen.
Road bridge, gently cambered, built of local stone rubble. A single semi-eliptical arch with hammer-faced voussoirs. Spandrels rise to a projecting cambered string course at road level; parapet coped with flush limestone slabs linked with iron cramps. The parapets sweep outward at each end.
Included as a good example of an early C19 country road bridge of the type associated with improvements in rural communications carried out in the late C18 and early C19.
