Four Mile Bridge

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Four Mile Bridge (Welsh: Pont Rhydbont) is the name given to a bridge and and the village surrounding it in Anglesey, Wales. They are so named because they are located around four miles south east of Holyhead, the largest town on the island.

The bridge is one of only two connecting the Anglesey mainland to the smaller Holy Island. It is 120 metres long, carries a 'B' road and crosses over the Cymyran Strait. The village itself is quite small and is split between the two island, the larger portion being on Holy Island. It is hard to get information on the population of the village as it is split over two parishes. It is safe to say however that it must be around 500 as the largest part of the village is in the parish of Rhoscolyn which has a population of 484 and no other settlement of any real size.^[1].
