Monnow Bridge

A really lovely medieval bridge, no cars allowed, which is brilliant because the bridge doesn't get damaged and you get up and close to admire the architecture, win win.

How can anyone visit without coming here first. Has to be the most iconic building on a bridge in the UK. All routes lead this way, had a few moments each way.

I loved this bridge !! I'd always wanted to visit there !! Finally I did this past summer !! YAY !! 👍 👍 It made me feel wonder what was like to be living back in the Era ! There were many people walking around ,bicycling ,skate boarding & also kids & people were on the river banks ,too !! There was a bus stop very near by this bridge ,it took about 55 minutes to get there by bus from the city centere of Newport ! There was a Waitrose less than 5 minutes away from this bridge by walk & There was a clean toilet at the Waitrose right by the front entrance ! There are many nice cafes & restaurants & pubs close by ,too !! I really enjoyed walking around this bridge & in the beautiful town !!

Such feeling of walking on an 800 years old medieval bridge! It is pedestrian only and you can stop and admire the ducks and swans underneath it.
We also let our dog play a little in the water so everyone enjoyed it fully.

Lovely old bridge, closed to traffic which enables you to walk over it safely for an up close view. Watch the ducks or sit & look up/down the river. Car park & a picnic/seating area nearby even an ice cream van for a nice sunny day! Located at the bottom of the main shopping street too!!

Lovely place to visit, impressive bridge, Monmouth has great coffee shops and small individual shops, interesting info banners about the history in English and Welsh, v interesting church and grave stones, nice old theatre, if you cross the bridge away from th shops there is an interesting ceramic history and if you turn down the street on the left the houses on the right have wall paper printing blocks set in and painted like pargetting

A quite fascinating old bridge. The only one remaining in Britain with a fortification no less. Apparently the building on the bridge has been used in the past as a jail but sadly you can't go inside to look around (unless you book in advance). Cars can no longer use the bridge. If you visit Monmouth (which you should as it's a very pleasant town) then worth checking out.

Lovely standing on the bridge looking over River Wye. In the distance on 1 side, there were "rapids", on the other side, dead calm. Jut the other side of the bridge is the history of Monmouth, set out in stone, in a circle. Monmouth is a lovely town, everyone very friendly-&lots of shops which have unfortunately closed in Norwich.
