Just a short stroll up the hill from Pontnewydd's shops is this locals' pub sited near the Monmouthshire & Brecon Canal. Known locally at the 'Top Bridge' (as opposed to the now closed 'Bottom Bridge', the New Bridgend further down the canal), it has a traditional layout of public bar and lounge with the latter extending into a dining area which still has a

hanging sign as you enter saying "No smoking beyond this point". The guest ale is changed regularly and sourced from well know national breweries. Pension Day on Wednesday.
