    Only a part of this stone bridge can be seen today. Stone slabs are laid across rows of 3 stone pillars. There have been attempt to restore this bridge in the recent past but work has been abruptly stopped in 2001. But recent visit (2015) showed the bridge conserved to a great extent. This stone bridge has been dated to 5-9th centuries.
