Cowbridge is a market town that lies on a Roman settlement identified by some scholars as the fort of Bovium (cow-place). Excavations have revealed a large Roman settlement and the town lies alongside an original Roman road. There are many 17th century references to a 'cow-bridge' over a tributary of the Thaw (a river which flows through the town) but Cowbridge's Celtic name, Y Bont-faen, means 'the stone bridge'.
