Good News!

The Princes Pier site has now been secured with the support of Menter Môn . A new, permanent exhibition will tell the story of the two Bridges across the Straits and the history of the area.
The Pier buildings, when restored, will have the space to exhibit the relevant artefacts to tell the story.

Please contact us if you think you have memorabilia which could go on display in the exhibition.

For this next 12 months the Bridges Exhibition will continue at Canolfan Thomas Telford.

Welcome -

to a community project to celebrate our two world famous bridges:
Thomas Telford's Menai Suspension Bridge & Robert Stephenson's Britannia Bridge,
the rich marine environment the outstanding natural beauty of the Menai Straits,
and the story of the people of this area through the last centuries.

We hope you find this website of interest; there is a great deal more on display in the exhibition in Menai Bridge and we look forward to your visit.

The Trust has two projects - The Canolfan Thomas Telford which houses the Bridges Exhibition, an active community centre and an Education centre. The second project is restoration of a historic warehouse called the Princes Pier, which is on the waterfront in Menai Bridge - the building will house the Exhibition in a more permanent home.
