The National Monuments Service's description
A road bridge (Wth 6.5m; long axis SW-NE) spanning the Loo River. Built of random rubble sandstone with a projecting string course at the base of parapet. Three segmental arches of similar span (c. 2.9m) with long, roughly shaped voussoirs. Two low pointed cutwaters on the upstream side of the piers (Wth 0.8m). The bridge has recently been widened (1.2m) on the downstream side and undersides of arches have been underpinned. The surviving parapet has vertical stone coping.
