More about this scene

This bridge, from which Bridgend derives its name, was probably constructed after Owain Glyndwr's uprising. It was partly demolished by a large flood on 21 August 1775. Two of the small arches were replaced with one large one, which explains why the bridge is not symmetrical.

Sparked a Memory for you?

If this has sparked a memory, why not share it here?

I remember the lady who lived in the mediaeaval house to the right of the picture. She had white hair in a bun and a long black skirt. Her garden at the front, which was a strip bordering the pavement, always had a giant sunflower in it each year.
