dc.description | Description: Preservation: The arch of the bridge remains intact, but the upstream (northeast) side of the bridge is so heavily damaged that most of it is preserved to half its original width. The bridge is encrusted with massive calcium carbonate deposits that almost completely obscure its southwest side. Traces of the conduit are visible on both sides of the bridge. ** Construction: The bridge is constructed of mortared rubble faced with petit appareil masonry. The facing blocks are carved from the local low-grade, blue-gray marble and fieldstones such as schist. They are 0.30–0.40 m long, 0.20 high, and 0.20–0.30 deep and are interspersed with smaller chinking stones, all bonded with a pinkish tan lime mortar with stone inclusions, most less than 0.01 m. The voussoirs of the arch are carved from the blue-gray marble and are 0.30 m long, 0.12–0.14 m wide at the extrados, and 0.20–0.35 m deep. ** Description: The bridge is preserved to a height of 5.5 m, a width of 3 m, and a length of 20 m. The interior of the conduit is 1.50 m wide and has side walls 1.2 m thick, indicating that the bridge was originally 3.9 m wide. The arch, which springs from the bedrock forming the banks of the dere, is constructed of two layers of voussoirs and spans 4 m. | en_US |
