Comments :
It is by-passed and lies in a hollow and can easily be overlooked. It is a sturdy little humped bridge, its roadway now tufted with grasses, and quite in keeping with the rocky, wild mountain pass. The segmental arch has a span of 30 feet approximately. The voussoirs are uneven and many of the top ones are almost vertical suggesting that mortar was not used in the building. The abutments are set on the river bed. [1]
