[1][2] The cambered bridge's five unequal elliptical stepped arches are mainly made of red sandstone, with some coursed rubble and finely dressed stone.

The parapets and full height splayed cutwaters are made of yellow sandstone with refuges on the top.

[6] A scheduled monument is also on the site, consisting of a medieval or post-medieval remains of an older bridge.

The Bangor-on-Dee bridge was reduced to only one-way traffic from the west, when the A525 by-pass opened.
