Pont Cysyllte is a 17th-century road bridge crossing the River Dee near the village of Trevor, Wrexham County Borough, Wales. It lies 200 m west of Thomas Telford's Pontcysyllte Aqueduct.
The sandstone bridge is dated '1697', though it was substantially rebuilt during the 18th century, and only the south arch and part of the south pier are original. The bridge comprises three arches, with full-height triangular cutwaters between each arch, each topped by a pedestrian refuge. The older south arch has a span of 10.7 m and the north arches have spans of 14 metres and 14.2 metres.
The bridge has been regularly damaged by motor vehicles being, at its narrowest, only 1.83 metres feet wide. Vehicles are supposed to stop before crossing and give priority to any oncoming vehicle already on the bridge.

Le Lude is the most northerly château of the Loire Valley and one of the last important historic castles in France, still inhabited by the same family for the last 260 years. The château is testimony to four centuries of French architecture, as a stronghold transformed into an elegant house during the Renaissance and the 18th century. The monument is located in the valley of Le Loir. Its gardens have evolved throughout the centuries.
