The National Monuments Service's description
A humpback road bridge (Wth 5.2m; long axis E-W) spanning a tributary of the Maine River. It is built of random rubble and has a single semicircular arch (span 4.3m) with roughly shaped voussoirs. The arch narrows at the base giving it a slightly horseshoe shape. The parapets have concrete coping. (Castleisland District Archaeological Survey)
