What is recorded here

Triple-arch road bridge, built c.1780, spanning River Bride. Round-headed arches with dressed limestone voussoirs and soffits springing from dressed limestone piers with U-cutwaters to west elevation. Rubble stone spandrels and parapet walls with dressed solider capping stones.
Bride Bridge carries far more traffic that its original builders could have imagined, and remaining in good condition, is a testament to the skill of the craftsmen and engineers involved in its construction. Its round-headed arches form a strong, rhythmical silhouette in the landscape.
