Located opposite the Mas de l’Esplugues farmhouse, this bridge allows passage over the Fontscalents stream, a tributary of the Marfà stream. Despite its small size, it is a Romanesque construction that has been preserved to this day.

It has a single arch and a narrow passage, designed for the old bridle paths, intended for people and animals, but not for carts. The railing currently visible is a modern addition intended to improve safety.
