Located at a sharp bend in the B4246. At a time before the B4246 existed here, the arch carried a railway line on an embankment across another railway line running through the arch. The trackbed of the higher-level line is now a cycleway and footpath. The railway lines were in industrial use, in the British Ironworks site. The Big Arch was Grade II listed in September 1994.
