- Pont Cysyllte, also known as Cysylltau Bridge or Bont Bridge, is a 17th-century road bridge crossing the River Dee near the village of Trevor, Wrexham County Borough, Wales. It lies 200 m west of Thomas Telford's Pontcysyllte Aqueduct and, carrying the B5434 road, is the main connection between Trevor and nearby Froncysyllte. The sandstone bridge is dated '1697', though it was substantially rebuilt during the 18th century, and only the south arch and part of the south pier are original. The bridge comprises three arches, with full-height triangular cutwaters between each arch, each topped by a pedestrian refuge. The older south arch has a span of 35 feet (10.7 m) and the north arches have spans of 14 metres (46 ft) and 14.2 metres (47 ft). The bridge became a Grade I listed structure in 1963 and is also a scheduled monument. The bridge has been regularly damaged by motor vehicles being, at its narrowest, only 1.83 metres (6.0 ft) feet wide. Vehicles are supposed to stop before crossing and give priority to any oncoming vehicle already on the bridge. (en)
