What is recorded here
Single-arch road bridge built, c. 1860, with a horseshoe shaped arch. Rubble sandstone walls with cut voussoirs to horseshoe arch and cut copings to parapet walls.
The simple elegant form of this former road bridge is enhanced by the contrast between random rubble sandstone walls and cut sandstone voussoirs which adds textural interest to the site. Spanning the road between two cliff faces the bridge formed an access way to nearby quarry works. It is of considerable technical interest in terms of the horsehoe arch design and the scale of the bridge on such a narrow road.
