Description
Pont Ricket is a two-span bridge made of rubble stone, featuring an asymmetrical humped deck. It has segmental arches constructed from narrow stone voussoirs, each with dripstones, with the northern arch being higher and wider than the southern one. Between the arches are triangular cutwaters made of dressed snecked stone, which are likely a later addition. The parapets consist of large blocks of pecked grey stone with a string course and are slightly corbelled out. The abutments extend into short rubble stone walls that run at right angles.
