Description
Bridge, built c.1860, carrying mine railway line, formerly associated with an open cast copper and sulphur mine. The bridge is constructed of rubble granite with roughly hewn voussoirs. It is single arched and carries a tramway over a dirt road.
Appraisal
Now derelict collection of mine related structures. These caused great environmental damage to a dramatic landscape yet as nature reclaims the area it has assumed a somewhat romantic air.
