Description
The bridge over the River Roch is a road bridge built in the early 19th century. It is constructed from coursed hammer-dressed stone. The stone arch features unusual lugged voussoirs on each side and is complemented by a stone band. The iron coping on the parapet is cramped and in poor condition. The parapet walls have an almost semi-circular shape, with square piers at each end.
