Appraisal
This bridge displays the work of skilled craftsmen in the execution of its stone work, especially visible in the cut voussoirs and cutwaters making it visually appealing. Retaining its original form, it highlights the achievements of early nineteenth-century engineering. It makes a positive contribution to the surrounding landscape.
