Drive bridge over Coundon Burn at NZ 2285 3056

The drive bridge over Coundon Burn, built in 1827, is a Grade II listed structure made of ashlar and dressed stone. This bridge was designed to carry a drive or bridleway over the Coundon Burn. It features a simple elliptical barrel vault that measures approximately 6.8 meters long and 2.13 meters wide, which is covered with earth and gravel. There are no headwalls or parapets present.

On the eastern (upstream) side, the bridge displays a single arch ring made of fine ashlar voussoirs, with the keystone inscribed with "WD | 1827," referring to William Dunelm, also known as William Van Mildert, who was the Bishop of Durham from 1826 to 1836. The arch ring on the western side and the connecting vault are constructed from less well-dressed stone. Additionally, a training wall extends from the north abutment a short distance downstream, and the stream bed is paved.
