Description
The bridge is built of local red sandstone which is coursed and squared but is well short of being ashlar, including the arch dressings and the parapet coping. There are five segmental arches with the road ramped up to the centre. Pointed cutwaters fading into pilasters between each arch and on both faces of the bridge. The widening of the bridge on both sides can clearly be seen in the arch soffits. There is a continuous band above the arches but this is hidden on the down-stream side by an attached cast iron pipe. Parapet wall with flat stone coping.
