Abergavenny Bridge, Medieval stone bridge in Abergavenny, Wales.
The Abergavenny Bridge spans across the River Usk with seven arches made of carefully crafted stone, connecting the towns of Abergavenny and Llanfoist.
Originally constructed in the mid-15th century under Jasper Tudor, Duke of Bedford, the bridge underwent substantial reconstruction in the early 19th century to support a tramroad.
The bridge attracted notable artist J.M.W. Turner, who created two paintings of the structure during the 1790s, with one displayed at the Victoria and Albert Museum.
The bridge carries the A4143 road and stands at an elevation of 44.8 meters, providing an essential transport link for vehicles traveling between both sides of the river.
The structure represents a combination of two separate bridges merged in the mid-19th century, featuring distinctive cutwaters below its seven voussoired arches.
