Nevern Bridge

Nevern Bridge is a humpback bridge of rubblestone and ashlar standing over the River Nevern in the centre of the village of Nevern in Pembrokeshire. It was built late in the 18th or early in the 19th century and is listed at Grade II. The bridge has two unequal arches, the southern one being the larger. Keystones are recessed into the masonry of each arch. The bridge carries a quiet lane across the river and forms part of the local walking routes. It stands about 220 yards south of the parish church of St Brynach. The modest scale and solid construction reflect the practical needs of a farming community in centuries past. Visitors find a stone bridge with a pronounced hump and two distinct arches. The river below is shallow and often bordered by rushes. The lane on the bridge is wide enough for a single vehicle and is used by walkers and occasional farm traffic. The setting remains rural, with stone cottages and farm buildings close by.
