What is recorded here
Double-arch stone slightly humped road bridge, built c.1750, curved in plan and spanning Annalee River. Cut-stone saddle copings to parapets. Parapet walls, spandrels, and wing walls of roughly coursed stone rubble with roughly cut voussoirs to elliptical arch rings. Rubble-stone soffits to barrels. Cut masonry blocks forming V-cutwaters with cap stone. Recent concrete casing to piers, cutwaters, and abutments.
The bridge forms an elegant curve over the river in line with the approach roads. The roughly dressed stone gives it a rustic expression which contrasts with the cutwaters and coping stones. The bridge displays a mix of stone construction types and with its unusual plan, adds considerably to the civil engineering heritage of the county.
