What is recorded here

Triple-arch humpback road bridge over the River Bilboa, built c. 1820. Segmental arches with cut voussoirs, dressed stone to spandrel walls. Cut limestone U-cutwaters to upstream and downstream elevations. Dressed stone parapet walls with dressed copings.
This bridge displays the work of skilled craftsmen in the execution of its stone work, especially visible in the cut voussoirs and cutwaters making it visually appealing. Retaining its original form, it highlights the achievements of early nineteenth-century engineering. It makes a positive contribution to the surrounding landscape.
