Description

Portobello Bridge is an 18th-century bridge made of red brick, featuring ashlar coping that forms a low parapet. It has an iron balustrade with a wooden rail. The bridge consists of three semi-elliptical arches that span the Mill Race, with the central arch being larger than the others. The structure rises to a point above the central arch.
