1. Constructed circa 1830; originally built over Kidwelly + Llanelly canal.

2. Rope marks are visible on the sides of both bridges (see also Stanley's Bridge NPRN 34750), also the towpath, hacked away to provide clearance for the railway. Since the closure of this section of railway in l985 it has reverted very much to its original status as a canal.
