Description
This is a bridge over Newbiggin Beck, located 100 metres north of Fellowship Farm. It is probably from the 18th century, with 19th-century parapets. The structure is made of sandstone rubble with ashlar dressings. It features a high segmental arch with roughly-dressed voussoirs, and boulders form the base of the arch. The larger rubble gives it the appearance of a packhorse bridge at the former road-bed level. The road was likely raised and widened in the 19th century to provide access to a pencil mill to the north, during which time the parapets, which have throughstones and round coping, were also raised.
