History

Exterior

Road bridge over the river Usk. Rubble stone, four elliptical recessed arches with stone voussoirs separated by full-height cutwaters with pedestrian refuges. The S arch is lower than the other three. The cutwaters are slightly stepped, in three tiers with the bottom tier in squared stonework. Over the crown of each arch is a square drainage hole from the roadway.

Reasons for Listing
