Description

Low Angerton Bridges, over the River Wansbeck, were built in 1908. The South Bridge was constructed by The British Concrete Steel Company and features rock-faced stone with dressings and reinforced concrete. It has a segmental arch made of two curved girders connected by transverse beams, with vertical struts supporting the roadbed. The bridge is adorned with an openwork wrought-iron parapet, and the flanking piers have bands and low pyramidal caps. The approach walls also have bands and flat coping, which ramp up at the ends.

The Flood Bridge, located 20 meters to the north, has two semicircular arches made with rock-faced and margined voussoirs. It includes an openwork wrought-iron parapet between piers that have heavy block caps, along with splayed flat-coped flanking walls.
