commentary: Single brick red brick arch, built about 1792. The bridge is strengthened with four ties with circular tie plates. During World War II the parapets were temporarily lowered to improve visibility. There are tank traps and pillboxes of the Bristol-Margate defence line nearby. The bridge carries the side road SW from Dogmersfield towards the A287.
