The little arched stone bridge that crosses Wepre Brook near Ewloe castle was built just after Wepre Hall in 1800. It was actually an older bridge, Pont Saeson, that was demolished further up the valley and rebuilt here. It was near this spot that Owain Gwynedd, Prince of North Wales, ambushed and defeated the troops of Henry II in 1157.
