Description

This is a road bridge over the River Brit, dating from the 17th and 18th centuries. It is built from rubble stone and features three spans, with cutwaters located on the north side. The central arches are segmental-pointed in shape, while the arches to the west are round-arched. On the north side, there is one 20th-century concrete lintel. The south side retains intact arches but lacks cutwaters and does not have parapet walls.
