The town of Pontypridd, nestled within the county borough of Rhondda Cynon Taf in Wales, is home to the Old Bridge, also known as Pontypridd Bridge. This bridge, constructed in 1756 by William Edwards, is known for its unique design and is considered a marvel of civil engineering. The bridge was designed with a single-span arch, which, at the time of its construction, was the longest single-span stone arch bridge in the world. Remarkably, the bridge still stands today, a testament to Edwards' innovative design and a symbol of Pontypridd's rich history.

Fun Fact !
Another fascinating aspect of Pontypridd's culture is its contribution to Welsh music. The town is the birthplace of Sir Tom Jones, a globally renowned singer whose career has spanned over six decades. But perhaps less known is that Pontypridd also gave birth to the national anthem of Wales, 'Hen Wlad Fy Nhadau' (Land of My Fathers). Evan James and his son James James, local residents of the town, composed the lyrics and music of the anthem respectively, in 1856. This anthem is held in high esteem, not only in Wales but across the world, and it encapsulates the deep-rooted national pride and cultural identity of the Welsh people.
