Description
The bridge over the River Allen, dating from the 18th century with 19th-century parapets, features three pointed stone arches supported by pointed cutwaters. On the north side, there are five 19th-century octagonal stone piers that are separated by cast iron railings with arrow-shaped balustrading. The south side has a similar design but does not include the stone piers.
