Single-arch bridge over irrigation channel, built c. 1850, having stepped weir to west. Roughly coursed dressed sandstone walls with round-profile limestone copings and square-profile limestone piers with domed caps. Dressed sandstone voussoirs to round arch. Rubble limestone walling to stream to west side.
This bridge is solidly constructed and high quality materials have been used throughout. The rounded copings and caps add decorative interest to the structure. The stepped weir is an unusual feature and adds further interest to the site.
