Framed Photos from Mary Evans Picture Library
Llangollen Bridge
Llangollen Bridge - River with Rocks, Arched Bridge. Part of Box 145 Boswell Collection - East Coast. Llangollen takes its name from the Welsh llan meaning a religious settlement and Saint Collen, a 6th century monk who founded a church beside the river. St Collen is said to have arrived in Llangollen by coracle. As there are no other churches in Wales dedicated to St Collen, it is possible that he may have had connections in Colan in Cornwall and Langolen in Brittany. Date: circa 1900

EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: Llangollen Bridge - A Timeless Emblem of Welsh History and Beauty 2. Nestled in the picturesque town of Llangollen, Wales, this photograph showcases the iconic arched bridge spanning the tranquil River Dee. The bridge, adorned with an abundance of ancient rocks, is a testament to the rich history and natural charm of this enchanting location. 3. Llangollen, which translates to 'the religious settlement of St. Collen,' takes its name from the Welsh 'llan' meaning a religious settlement and 'Saint Collen,' a 6th-century monk who is said to have founded a church beside the river. St. Collen is believed to have arrived in Llangollen via a coracle, a traditional Welsh boat. 4. The legend of St. Collen's connection to Llangollen is further strengthened by the fact that there are no other churches in Wales dedicated to him. It is plausible that he may have had ties to Colan in Cornwall and Langolen in Brittany, as the name 'Collen' is of Celtic origin and can be found in both regions. 5. This photograph, captured around the turn of the 20th century, offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back in time to an era of simplicity and beauty. The arched bridge, with its timeless elegance, stands as a symbol of the enduring history and allure of Llangollen. 6. The River Dee, which flows gently beneath the bridge, adds to the serene ambiance of the scene. The rocks, worn smooth by the passage of time and the water, are a reminder of the natural forces that have shaped this breathtaking landscape. 7. This photograph is an exquisite addition to any collection, evoking a sense of nostalgia and wonder. It serves as a reminder of the beauty and history that can be found in the most unexpected places, inviting us to explore the world around us and delve deeper into the stories that lie within.
