Ystwyth gorge upstream of the Miners' Bridge, Pont-rhyd-y-groes
The gorge lies immediately behind a row of miners' cottages on the main road through Pont-rhyd-y-groes. The footbridge was built in the early naughties to replace an older bridge which used to give the miners access to the lead mines on the north side of the gorge a little downstream.

Miners Bridge, Pont-rhyd-y-groes
This bridge replaces a bridge once used by workers going to the lead mines. It now makes walks in the forest more practical by crossing the River Ystwyth near the village. Many walks are way-marked.

Overshot watermill, Lisburne silver/lead mines, Pont-rhyd-y-groes
This 24' wheel stands on the site of an original 26' wheel constructed in the 1850s to drive ore crushing stamps. It continues to turn, fed by a mile long drainage level in the mine. The Lisburne mine complex was one of the most productive in the Ceredigion area, employing over 400 workers in the 1870s but had closed by 1913 in the face of cheaper imports. The death-knell of the British lead mining industry was sounded after the First World War when the government released its no longer needed stockpiles.
