The Ministère de la Culture's notice
Historique
Le pont, alors sans doute déjà ruiné, apparaît sur le cadastre napoléonien. Il n'en reste que quatre piles et deux voûtes. Les ruines du pont auraient servi à empierrer le passage à gué voisin.

History
The bridge, then no doubt already in ruins, appears on the Napoleonic cadastre. Only four piers and two vaults remain of it. The ruins of the bridge would have been used to stone the neighbouring ford passage.
