| Additional Information: | The 1961 bridge is a three span, reinforced concrete, haunched slab fabrication that essentially embodies a post-and-beam structural system. The structure employed a design common to the period. The bridge railings are timber and the endposts are quarried stone set in mortar. The timber posts are attached to the side of the bridge by metal straps while the endposts appear to simply sit on the top of the deck. |
