The Iron Tram Bridge, Robertson is an early example of a "railway" bridge. It crosses the River Cynon between Trecynon and Robertstown. It carried the Llwydcoed Tramroad ({{convert|4|ft|2|in|m}} gauge) which ran from Hirwaun to the canal head at Cwmbach, south east of Aberdare. It was built by the Aberdare Canal & Navigation Company in 1811, and probably designed by George Overton.{{r|Grace}}

Little remains of the tramroad but its route is now a footpath.{{r|ET}} The bridge is a scheduled monument and a Grade II listed building.{{r|Cadw Iron Tram Bridge}}
