The bridge runs roughly northwest to southeast and spans about 5.7 metres in width, with each of its two segmental arches, arches shaped as a segment of a circle rather than a full semicircle, carrying a span of roughly four metres across the water.

The materials and techniques used tell a layered story about how such rural infrastructure was built. The main body is random rubble, meaning irregularly shaped stones laid without precise coursing, a common and economical approach for the bulk of a structure. But the pier and the sides of the abutments, the supports that anchor the bridge to its banks, are faced in ashlar, finely cut and dressed stone, signalling that certain elements were considered important enough to warrant more skilled and costly work. The voussoirs, the wedge-shaped stones that lock each arch together at the top, are rusticated cut stone, giving them a deliberately textured face. On the upstream side of the pier, facing into the current, sits a rounded cutwater measuring about 1.1 metres wide, shaped and punch-dressed to deflect the flow of water around the pier and reduce erosion. Concrete plinths added later to the pier and abutments suggest the bridge has been reinforced at some point to bear heavier modern loads, though vertical stone coping still runs along the parapets, preserving that original finishing detail.
