Comments :

The abutments are of stone and quite handsomely built suggesting the possibility of an earlier bridge. What is here now is a large pipe riveted in two sections and supported on two cylindrical metal columnar piers. Metal girders bolted to the pipe and strengthened with angle bars, carry a wooden deck which is 40 inches wide and has stabilisers. [1]
