It is a high, single-span rubble bridge, with dressed rubble arch ring springing from natural rock abutments. There are shallow end buttresses, a low, coped, tooled rubble parapet and slightly splayed approaches. There are later cast-iron ties. The approximate span of the bridge is 50 feet (15 metres). It is also known as the Bridge of Divie.
