Castell Du Sennybridge is a fragmentary stone castle that has largely been built over by modern housing. What remains is a short section of courtyard wall and a small D-shaped tower. The castle occupied a natural rocky outcrop which overlooks the junction of the River Senni with the Usk, and probably dates to the 1260s. The ruin is badly overgrown and there is no public access to it.
