The National Monuments Service's description
A road bridge (Wth 5.7m; long axis N-S) spanning the Cullavaw stream. It is built of random rubble sandstone. The two segmental arches (span 3.6m) have roughly shaped voussoirs. There is a low pointed cutwater on the upstream side of the pier (Wth c. 1m) and vertical stone coping on the parapets. The riverbed under the arches is paved. The bridge is known locally as Cullavaw Bridge.
