A road bridge (Wth c. 8m; long axis E-W), built of random ashlar sandstone, spanning the Owgarriv River. The single eliptical arch has cut and dressed voussoirs. There is a projecting string course at the base of the parapets. The remains of vertical stone coping are visible. There is a lintelled overflow arch on the W bank; the E bank is covered in dense overgrowth.
