Description
Denwick Bridge, dated 1765, is attributed to Robert Mylne, who worked previously with John Adam. This Grade I listed structure is built of ashlar and features a single segmental arch that spans the River Aln, complete with a moulded rim. The bridge has octagonal side piers and a parapet adorned with interlaced crescents, with the dies featuring trefoil-headed panels. There is a pointed arcade corbel table cornice on the side piers and a modillion cornice along the rest of the bridge. Below the dies, two corbels display a crescent encircled by the Garter and the date MDCCLXV. The spandrels include circular panels with quatrefoils, showcasing the Percy Lion on the left and a fesse engrellee on the right. The bridge has been widened, and the north side appears quite plain. Additionally, there is a subsidiary bridge located twenty yards to the west, which crosses the escape stream from a nearby weir.
