Description

A high single-arched bridge of coursed sandstone. The segmental arch has a tooled arch ring. On the SE side is a rounded and stepped cutwater, where the Neath and Tennant Canals are joined. To the SW is a ramped approach, set at an angle with the parapet, which is corbelled out over the abutment on the E side.

On the N side the parapets curve out at acute angles, being corbelled out over the abutment on the W side. The parapets all descend to water level, retain much original flat stone coping but are also partly renewed with concrete, especially on the E side.
