Development History
October 2010: Inspection finds an attractive bridge on the old road, now bypassed, heavily overgrown by grass, with copes missing, the stone abutments are in a very poor state. The arch is surprisingly intact and very elegant.
17 October 2013: External inspection finds the building remains in much the same condition as seen previously.
