Description

This narrow road bridge, built in 1844, is located 240 meters southeast of Morval House, over a tributary of the East Looe River at the head of a higher fish pond on the Morval Estate. Erected by John Buller, the bridge is constructed from snecked stone rubble with granite dressings. It features three pointed dressed stone arches with chamfered jambs, flanked by four snecked stone buttresses that have granite set-offs. Above the arches, there is a recessed parapet with a granite string course at the base and chamfered granite coping. The parapet also bears the inscription 'John Buller 1844'.
