Description

Hargill Bridge is a road bridge that crosses Hargill Beck, likely built in the late 18th century. It is constructed from rubble with squared-boulder coping stones, and both faces of the bridge are similar in appearance. The bridge features a segmental arch made up of thin and rough projecting voussoirs. The faces contain scattered throughstones. The parapet has a slight curve and is adorned with large coping stones that are laid alternately upright and flat, creating an embattled effect. The west end of the bridge is splayed, while the east end is straight and ends with later battered piers that have squared caps.

Hargill Bridge sits in a wetter-than-average part of the UK, with an average of 1,090 mm of rain a year. This makes it wetter than 87% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is greater than that of 73% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 62 freeze-thaw cycles a year, more than 98% of listed buildings. Of these, 41 follow at least 1 mm of rain in the preceding 48 hours. Average temperatures at this location have risen by 0.3°C per decade since 1991.

Averages for 1991–2020; temperature trend 1991–2025. Figures describe the wider area (a grid cell of roughly 10 km), not the individual site. Contains modified Copernicus Climate Change Service information 2026.
