Description
Seven-arch road bridge over River Duag, built c. 1800, with V-cutwaters to west. Rubble sandstone and limestone walls with six semi-circular arches and one elliptical arch, having dressed limestone voussoirs. Recent cast-iron lamps and overflow holes to parapet walls.
Appraisal
The irregular size and shape of the arches are unusual features of this bridge and may be due to the creation of a mill race for the nearby mill at Brewery Lane. Visible from approach roads, this bridge over the river Duag adds interest to the surrounding landscape.
