Description

Hartford Bridge, which spans the River Blyth, is a bridge dating from the 15th or 16th century. It was widened in 1688 and underwent further widening and partial rebuilding in 1904. The north arch features squared stone on the east side, while the remainder of the east face is made of tooled-and-margined stone. The west face consists of snecked rock-faced stone with ashlar voussoirs and a tooled-and-margined parapet, along with a brick soffit on the western part. The bridge has three segmental arches.

On the east face, there is a triple-chamfered arch from the 15th or 16th century on the right, accompanied by large triangular cutwaters that support shallow pilaster buttresses. There is a band below the parapet, which has chamfered coping, and low end piers. The west face features lower curved cutwaters with a moulded cornice and similar pilasters. The bridge is partly located in Blyth Valley District.
