Description
Single-arch limestone bridge, built c.1840, carrying road over Woodford River. Cut snecked walls and parapet walls with cut-stone coping stones and buttresses to the north and south ends. Segmental arch with dressed voussoirs.
Appraisal
A simple single-arch bridge, clearly the work of skilled craftsmen and stonemasons. The solidity of its construction is emphasised by the buttresses to each side of the arch. It is one of a group of bridges built to similar designs carrying the road over local rivers.
