Grade II listed former railway bridge, Pontllanfraith
I was unaware of this bridge's existence, but was tempted to explore the lane named Tir-philkins by a sign on the main road showing 180 yards to a 6' 3" headroom bridge. The height of the roof at the midpoint is about 8 feet, but the 6' 3" clearance takes account of the width of a vehicle.
The bridge was built in the early 1800s to convey a horse-drawn tramway (for carrying coal) over the road. The stonework was later extended when the tramway was converted to a railway. The outline of the original smaller structure can be seen below the extension. The railway line closed in 1989.
The bridge was grade II listed in March 1999.
