What is recorded here

Three-arch bridge, built c.1800, carrying road over Woodford River. Rubble limestone walls, dressed limestone parapet walls with curved coping stones, round arches with dressed stone voussoirs. Square tie-plates to both elevations, V-cutwaters to west elevation. Rubble stone revetments to north bank, west side. Rubble stone approach walls with rubble coping stones.
This is a well built bridge of sturdy appearance, the tall arches being an engineering feat, ensuring no change in road level. Its east elevation makes a pleasing feature in the landscape from the road to the east. It forms part of an interesting group with the adjoining weir.
