Four Mile Bridge is a twin-village in Anglesey and the bridge which gives it its name and which unites the two parts. The main part of the village stands on Holy Island and its counterpart across the bridge on the Isle of Anglesey itself. The bridge is so named because it is found about four miles south-east of Holyhead, the largest town on Holy Island.
The bridge is one of only two connecting the Anglesey mainland to Holy Island. It is almost 400 feet long and carries the B4545 road over the Cymyran Strait.
The village itself is quite small and split between two parishes as between two islands. The total population between the two parts is estimated to be around 500, the greater part on Holy Island, in the parish of Rhoscolyn which itself has a total population of 484 and no village of any real size but Four Mile Bridge.
