Description

Dalton Bridge is a bridge dated 1789, featuring a limestone ashlar face and a brick-lined tunnel. It has a later parapet made of random rubble. On both sides of the bridge, large voussoirs create a single semicircular arch, with splayed abutments at each end.

Local climate

Dalton Bridge sits in a drier-than-average part of the UK, with an average of 720 mm of rain a year. This makes it drier than 81% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is lower than that of 95% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 32 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 57% of listed buildings. Of these, 18 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.
