It is of historical interest as important to local communications and the settlements nearby.
It has now been bypassed by the Moore River Road and a more recent bridge. It had three sections, each crossing a stream of the Gingin Brook. One bridge has collapsed; the other two are not totally safe. The land on which it stands is now under private ownership.
This is a substantial bridge built in 1907 by Christopher Hough. He was both contractor and builder. This was the only bridge crossing of the Gingin Brook between Gingin and the coastal areas and served for many years.
