Lampeter Bridge across the Teifi.

Lampeter Bridge(Pont Stephan, Llanbedr).

Lampeter Bridge - This is over the Teify on the main road from Lampeter to Llandovery and within half a mile of the former. It is built of stone and comprises three arches, two of them with a span of 25 feet and a central arch of 35 feet span, besides a land arch on the Carmarthenshire side of 22 ft span. It was erected in 1830 at the joint expense of the counties of Carmarthenshire and Cardigan, and the parish of Pencarreg. The contract was for £520, of which Cardiganshire paid £150, Carmarthenshire £200 and Pencarreg £170.

Arthur Mee, Carmarthenshire Notes.

Ogilvy showed a stone bridge with three arches at "Lanbedar, pont Steffan", the old name for Lampeter, and also a "Wood Bridge and Brook" a short distance to the south-east. The present one however, which was reconstructed in 1932, only dates from the year 1827.
