Chain Bridge (Berwyn)
The Chain Bridge is a footbridge over the river Dee at Berwyn, Llangollen, Denbighshire, North Wales.
It is jointly owned by Llangollen Town Council and Llantysilio Community Council, the bridge linking the two communities. A pathway from Berwyn railway station, now part of the Llangollen Railway, leads under a subway and down to the bridge and to the Chain Bridge Hotel on the other side.
The current bridge is the third such bridge, and was built by Sir Henry Beyer Robertson, following the destruction of the previous second chain bridge during severe flooding.
==First bridge==
The first chain bridge was built by Exiperus Pickering in 1813 in order to transport coal, lime, stone, etc from the Shropshire Union Canal, (Llangollen Canal) across the Dee to Telford's recently completed London to Holyhead road. The bridge allowed Pickering to bypass the Llangollen toll bridge further downstream, and transport coal from his mines near Acrefair up the canal and onwards to Corwen. It was one of the first chain bridges in the world.
