Coursed blocks of squared ironstone with lightly rusticated ashlar detail and granite string course and coping. Vertical abutments to single high segmental arch in which some of the ashlar voussoirs are incised to appear as 2 headers for regularity. Flat plain granite coping with curved weathering. On each side the walls curve outward to terminal piers which project only externally. The form of bridge is very similar to Lapford Bridge and Bury Bridge, Morchard Bishop both of which include plaques commemorating their erection in 1830 by Roger Tyler, builder, for the Trustees of the Exeter Turnpike.
