What is recorded here

Five-arch road bridge over River Tar, built c. 1810, having round arches, with V-cutwaters to north elevation, rubble limestone walls and parapets, latter with render coping, and cut-stone voussoirs to arches.
This long low bridge is visible from the winding approach road to the south, bringing architectural interest to the rural landscape. The carefully designed and executed arches are evidence of the skill of the stonemasons and stonecutters involved in the construction. The neatly-cut voussoirs provide textural contrast to the rougher rubble stone of the walls.

This does not grant access. Most recorded buildings are privately owned; view them only from public ground unless the owner allows entry.
