Heddiw (1 Gorffennaf) dathlodd Pont Grog Conwy ei phen-blwydd yn 200 oed, gan nodi dwy ganrif ers iddi agor gyntaf ym 1826.
Cynhaliwyd seremoni arbennig a oedd yn cynnwys dadorchuddio'r Sgrol Migneint. Mae'r sgrôl yn waith celf tecstilau cymunedol 15 metr o hyd sy'n darlunio'r Afon Conwy. Wedi'i chreu dros dair blynedd gydag ysgolion, grwpiau cymunedol a'r artist Rachel Evans mewn cydweithrediad â Pigtown a Phrosiect Uwch Conwy, cyfrannodd mwy na 900 o bobl at y dathliad unigryw hwn o dirweddau, treftadaeth a chymunedau Conwy.
Ers 1965, mae'r bont wedi cael ei gofalu gan Ymddiriedolaeth Genedlaethol Cymru, gan sicrhau ei bod yn cael ei chadw ar gyfer cenedlaethau'r dyfodol wrth anrhydeddu ei gorffennol rhyfeddol.
