Llangollen Bridge

The local high school Ysgol Dinas Bran graduating classes have a yearly tradition (oft discouraged) of jumping into the river Dee from the bridge.

The argument for the 1540s is based on evidence of sepulchral slabs within the masonry, indicating that it was rebuilt following the dissolution of the monasteries by Henry VIII from 1534 to 1541.

[3] The argument for the 1650s is the Rondle Reade stone which details a payment for construction work in 1656, at the site, though whether this refers to rebuilding or repairs is unclear.

[2][3] The river bridge consists of four pointed arches of unequal size, with a further square opening over the railway.

Much of the bridge is constructed from coursed rubble, apart from the newer rail section which is made of concrete.
