◊ Canton Bridge, Cardiff - The river Taff has been crossed since Roman times at this point. The stone bridge in the photograph above was built in 1859 after the previous crossing was washed away by a flood twenty years or so earlier. Due to increasing traffic, it was widened in 1877 and served the community until its complete replacement, with a ferro-concrete structure, in the early 1930's.
