Bridges In Myths And Legends

Bridges In Myths & Legends

Whether it be garden bridges, road bridges or bridges between realms, they appear in a suprising amount of myths and legends. Most people have heard of the Three Billy Goats Gruff who went over a bridge with a troll beneath, but what about the more obscure stories?

 

Devils Bridge

Devils bridge is a village in Ceredigion, Wales. It is well known for it's unique bridge which has three separate bridges built on top of each other, instead of the previous bridges being demolished.

Legend says that the original bridge was built after an old woman named Megan noticed that her cow had somehow made it to the other side of a river. This being her only cow and only source of income, Megan was very upset and worried. An old monk appeared behind her asking what was wrong, and after explaining the situation, he offered to build her a bridge. All that he wanted in return was the first living creature to cross the bridge after it was finished. Once finished, Megan threw a loaf of bread across the bridge which her dog chased after. She thanked him and told him that he could take her dog. He replied telling her that the dog was no good to him and vanished right in front of her. That's when she knew for sure that she had bested the Devil.

What our customers say about us

Thank you for the table. It seems very well made and so nice for a change to have something constructed in England, especially in my ancestral county of Lincolnshire! Your customer service had been excellent- keeping me informed and sending me delivery details. I wish you every success in your business.

Ordered a Classica bridge to stand over our garden pond. Absolutely outstanding workmanship at a very fair price. It was delivered through the house into the back garden. Would highly recommend this business. Thank You

I first purchased the rustic bridge and was so impressed with the quality and appearance went on to purchase the garden arch. The structures are well made and very attractive and the staff are extremely pleasant and helpful. I can thoroughly recommend this company.
John Marshhall, Bedlington Northumberland
Excellent customer service from start to finish, emailed questions answered within a few hours. Delivery promptly, I wasn't home when my bridge arrived, but instead of just leaving it on my driveway, delivery man carried around my house and left it adjacent to my pond. Quality of bridge is excellent. Thoroughly recommend this company.
