What is recorded here
Single-arch road bridge, built c.1840, over Tooreena Stream. Coursed rusticated limestone block walls, with horseshoe arch and having stone block buttresses to ends. Roughly dressed string course above arch and incorporating buttresses. Rubble limestone parapets and rubble limestone abutments to approaches to bridge.
This picturesque bridge is an important part of the region's road infrastructure. Its simple form is enhanced by the rusticated stone construction and is further enlivened by the flanking buttresses and string course.
