Description
Four-arch limestone road bridge, built c. 1800, over the River Camoge. Segmental arches with dressed voussoirs, dressed limestone to spandrels. V-cutwaters to upstream and rectangular-profile cutwaters to downstream elevations. Roughly dressed limestone parapet walls with solider capping stones.
Appraisal
This well proportioned bridge is visually pleasing and contributes positively to the surrounding landscape. The appearance of the bridge is enhanced by the use of cut and dressed limestone in its construction. The use of such stone work along with the execution of the U- and V-shaped cutwaters displays the work of skilled craftsmen.
