Clearly an ancient bridge which crosses the infant river Nevern between Eglwyswrw to the NW and Crymuch to the SE. It appears to have two arches separated by a spit of land in the middle: the one shown spans the smaller stream, possibly a mill leat. Pont faen, the name of the crossroads to the south, simply means stone bridge.
