Description
The bridge is built of coursed blocks of red Forest of Dean sandstone conglomerate, with dressed voussoirs to the arches. It consists of a single round headed arch about 3.15m in height spanning the B4231 with a circular opening uphill on the north-east side. To the south-east are three low arches, the northernmost one with a stream running under it. The top surface of the bridge is 6m wide with parapets 1m high on both sides which are capped by flat stone slabs. The width of the bridge is clear indication that this was a self-acting incline with two lines of rails. Where it crosses the Redbrook on the south it enters England and a part of the structure is thus in Gloucestershire (Redbrook civil parish, Forest of Dean D C).
