What is recorded here

Single-arch limestone bridge, dated 1867, over Black River. Walls of roughly cut squared blocks, with segmental arch having dressed voussoirs, string course, and with rock-faced copings to parapets. Flanked by buttresses having similar detailing, with rounded ends to piers.
This is a fine example of a mid-nineteenth-century road bridge and has an elegant arch with good stone detailing throughout.
