Ponterwyd's rich history is evident throughout the village. At the village's heart lies Yr Hen Bont (English: The Old Bridge), a steep single arch late 18th-century stone bridge,[1] which is adjacent to a late Georgian chapel. Buildings in Ponterwyd range in date from the Georgian period to the 1980s, when a development of bungalows named 'Penlon' was added to the village.
