Heritage listing
Cook's Bridge is a Grade II listed bridge crossing the River Alyn near Trevalyn, Rossett in Wrexham County Borough, Wales. It is located to the south-east of Cooksbridge Farm, and roughly a third of a mile or half a kilometre from Rossett Road (B5102). The bridge dates to the early 19th century and contains a single-span of ashlar stone. The segmental arch has voussoirs and a keystone projecting into string course. The bridge's parapets are swept widely at either end to allow for waiting traffic, as the bridge is a single-laned bridge. A long-distance waymarked footpath lies to its immediate north along the river.
