The National Monuments Service's description

Crossing the W-E River Tay, c. 800m from where it enters the sea at Stradbally Cove, and within the Woodhouse estate. This is a simple bridge of three round arches with undressed voussoirs and breakwaters on the upstream side. It is impossible to date, but the arches are of unequal size and the apex of the bridge is over the most northerly arch, suggesting that it may be medieval.
