Welcome to Wales
This is the Menai Suspension Bridge - Telford Bridge
Porthaethwy - Pont Telford
or even
Pont Grog y Borth...
The bridge links Anglesey and the
mainland of Wales .
It was opened to much fanfare on 30 January 1826
and reduced the journey time from London to Holyhead
from 36 to 27 hours, a saving of 9 hours.
(can you imagine such a journey)
The bridge was designed by Thomas Telford
and completed in 1826.
(btw Thomas Telford was Scottish)
