There are two major estates in Bont Dolgadfan, Dolgadfan itself and Plas Llwyn Owen. The area has in the past been used for hunting game.
The Bont Dolgadfan bridge (Pont is Welsh for "bridge") is in the centre of the hamlet crossing the Afon Twymyn. It probably dates from the 18th century and was an important river crossing for the droveroad to Talerddig. The bridge is a Grade II listed structure.[2]
Famous former residents include Former High Court Judge Wintringham Norton Stable.[citation needed]
