The bridge, made of a single arch, was built in the medieval ages. Not much could be found about its history. Two dates are carved on the stone: 1806 and 2005, probably years when renovation works on the bridge took place.
It's a wonderful location, where one can easily imagine hobbits and alikes crossing the bridge. The natural environment just follows the atmosphere. Magic.
