Pont Fawr (Large bridge)

Llanrwst, Conwy, North Wales

Pont Fawr, is a narrow three-arch stone bridge over the River Conway, said to have been designed by Inigo Jones, and was built in 1636 by Sir Richard Wynn. The workmen who built the bridge inserted the keystones for the central arch upside down. This was not discovered until the opening day, when the arch collapsed.
