Caerhowel Cast Iron Bridge Traditional Cache

Many people passing through Powys just stick to the main routes, you don't have to venture far off those routes to see a bit of history. Caerhowel Bridge, the third cast iron bridge to be constructed in Montgomeryshire, is the most recent in a series of bridges over the River Severn near this spot. An earlier suspension bridge collapsed, with loss of life. The present Victorian-era bridge has been refurbished and carries one lane of signal-controlled road traffic on the B4385. There is room to park a single vehicle roadside just a few metres from the listed coordinates.
