It is a 2-span, stone arch bridge with each span measuring approximately 30 feet in length. Stonework consists of heavy stone blocks arranged in regular courses with distinctive pointed ring stones around each arch. A pointed stone cutwater projects from the west face of the center pier. Stepped wingwalls of stone construction project from the northwest and southwest corners of the bridge; these measure approximately 25 feet in length stone arch bridge
