Description
This is a packhorse bridge located to the southwest of Traihirion, partly within the Honddu Isaf community. It features a humped single arch design without parapets. The arch is segmental and constructed with thin stone voussoirs, topped with just thin coping stones, and there is some rubble stone in the spandrels. The roadway is cobbled, higher in the middle and undulating towards the sides. The upstream side has eroded abutments, which have caused movement in the soffit.
