"Hardd yw brigau coedydd Mostyn"

The title of this image is from an old Welsh folk song, and simply means "pretty are the branches of Mostyn". Although the lyrics treat Conwy, Nefyn and Mostyn as being of equivalent beauty, they reserve superlative praise for the beauty of Dyffryn Meifod.

May have been a windmill and then converted to a Roman Pharos folly?

Drybridge Lodge is an unusual castellated lodge situated above a bridge through which the road between Rhewl Mostyn and Tre-Mostyn passes. The lodge was built in 1849 by Ambrose Poynter and is on the Mostyn Hall estate. The building is Grade II listed and is viewed here from the east.

Drybridge Lodge, Mostyn

Drybridge Lodge was built in 1849 by Ambrose Poynter, one of three lodges built in a similar style, the others being Pennsylvania Lodge and Top-y-Coed Lodge. All three lodges were built within a southern extension of Mostyn Park made in the early 19th century by acquiring land previously belonging to the Bychton Estate. Drybridge Lodge is shown on the 1849 Tithe map and spans a road southwest of Mostyn (source Link

Ornate bridge

Looking east along a minor road between Tre-Mostyn and Rhewl Mostyn. This bridge is, I believe, connected with estate of the nearby Mostyn Hall.

Dry Bridge Lodge

The bridge straddles a minor road to the west of Mostyn. The castellated lodge is inhabited and a path leads northwards from it to Mostyn Hall and south to another lodge called Pensylvania Lodge in Whitford. The lodge was built by Ambrose Poynter in 1849. It bridges the public road, with the carriage drive passing through the lodge.
