This is a picture of a bridge in Andros. The drawing, made in 1840, is of a British traveler. Even though he presumed that the bridge was

constructed by the Franks, it seems to be much older, of the 17th century.

The dimensions of the arc are:

Opening: 8,90 m.

Maximum Height: 6 m.

Width: 1.34-1.40 m.

Width of piers:  2.32-2.35 m.
