Description

This is a bridge over the River West Allen, built in the early 19th century. It is constructed from squared rubble and features an elliptical arch with an arch ring, but it does not have parapets. The upstream face, which is the southern side, was noted to be in poor condition at the time of the survey. The bridge is listed for its group value due to its proximity to the remains of nearby lead mines.
