Penmaenpool Toll Bridge

Reviewed By traveldiaryuk - Tamworth, United Kingdom

This is a Grade II listed wooden toll bridge, which spans the Mawddach river, and was built in 1879 by the Pernmaenpool Bridge Company to replace a ferry across the river. A cottage was added about a century ago. A footpath and cycle track run along the former railway which runs alongside the bridge - the Mawddach Trail - which is highly popular. There is a public footpath on the other side.

We crossed this daily from Bryn Bella Guest House to Betws-y-coed. Great fun and a sure shortcut into the village.

Pont-y-Pair Bridge

Reviewed By mac8888 - Phoenix, United States

We stayed at the Bryn Afon right next to the Pont-y-Pair So we saw the bridge in the morning, the evening, with cloudy and clear skies. A beautiful old stone bridge. My favorite in that part of Wales. I always marvel at 600 year old structures that are still in use even after centuries of the stresses of flooding etc. Loved the sounds of the river cascading over the rocks. A short walk from the train station where many tour busses stop. Suprised that most tourists do not make the walk to catch a view of this historic bridge Shared one picture below...but took many more Time you should spend...If you are a photographer you can spend several hours here.
