Devil's Bridge (Welsh Pontarfynach pont bridge + Mynach) has as its main feature the eponymously named bridge which spans the Mynach, a tributary of the Rheidol. It consists of three bridges built above each other. The most recently built was an iron bridge in 1901 which was built over a stone bridge constructed in 1753 when the original bridge was thought to be unstable, using the original bridge built (1075 - 1200) to support the scaffolding.

Legend says that the bridge was built by the Devil as it was too difficult for people to build.
