Bridges

Gelli Bridge, immediately to the east of Gelli, spans the Syfynwy a few yards before it joins the Eastern Cleddau and is Grade II listed; it is listed twice (with different IDs and dates) because it falls within two parishes.{{cite web|title=British Listed Buildings: Gelli Bridge, Clynderwen (1997)|url=http://www.britishlistedbuildings.co.uk/wa-18799-gelli-bridge-llawhaden|accessdate=28 March 2016}}{{cite web|title=British Listed Buildings: Gelli Bridge (partly in Llawhaden community), Clynderwen (2004)|url=http://www.britishlistedbuildings.co.uk/wa-83174-gelli-bridge-partly-in-llawhaden-communit|accessdate=29 March 2016}}{{National Historic Assets of Wales|num=18799 |desc=Gelli Bridge (Llawhaden) |grade=II |access-date=25 July 2019 }}{{National Historic Assets of Wales|num=83174 |desc=Gelli Bridge (New Moat) |grade=II |access-date=25 July 2019 }} This listed bridge is not to be confused with several other bridges in the vicinity which carry road and rail across the Eastern Cleddau and another tributary.Ordnance Survey
