By 1992, when the site was formally recorded, a single-arch bridge still crossed the water at this spot, its semi-circular arch constructed from limestone blocks in a manner consistent with medieval practice. Today, even that structure has been superseded by a modern crossing, and what remains of the older bridge amounts to several courses of stone visible on the north bank alone, with nothing discernible on the opposite side.

The bridge's age has never been pinned down by documentary evidence, but its construction style places it in good company. Researchers Simington and O'Keefe noted in 1991 that it closely resembles another bridge a short distance to the west, one they dated on stylistic grounds to the fourteenth century. Semi-circular, or Romanesque-style, arch bridges of this period were typically built from locally quarried stone and designed to carry modest loads across the kinds of small watercourses that served monastic or agricultural settlements. The nunnery at Gracedieu, to which this bridge was presumably connected, adds another layer of context; religious houses routinely needed practical infrastructure of exactly this kind to manage the movement of people and goods around their lands.

The remains sit approximately twelve metres east of the modern crossing, which at least gives a precise point of reference for anyone trying to locate them. The north bank is where the surviving stonework lies, so that is where attention should be directed. The stream itself is modest and the surrounding ground is unlikely to be dramatic; this is a site for those content to read a landscape slowly, looking for the geometry of worked stone among the natural disorder of a riverbank. Visiting outside the growing season, when vegetation has died back, will improve the chances of seeing what little is actually there.
