Mislocated on map. This bridge is not the one right next to Dunkard Church Road but the next one about 1500 feet north. The rehabilitation of 1974 apparently involved widening the bridge. The west side has an old stone with the date 1837 but otherwise looks modern. The east side however looks convincingly old and has curved wall approaches. The flat stone top may be modern although the modern west side does not have it. Corrugated metal has been installed inside the arch.
Photos taken Aug 11 2011. 1: west side wall showing the date stone. 2: looking south, showing modern west side of bridge. 3: looking north, showing old east side (exposed to show detail of bridge).
