Description

The structure is a bridge with three arches, each spanning approximately 5 meters, and it carries a carriageway that is about 4.5 meters wide. The masonry is made of rock-faced, roughly axe-dressed stone, while the arches are constructed from common brickwork arranged in three half-brick rings. At the base of the parapet, there is a slight corbel made of sandstone, and the bridge features sandstone coping.
