Description

SJ 88 SW WILMSLOW FORMER U.D. QUARRY BANK ROAD (West Side)

1/302 The Packhorse Bridge.

6/3/1975

GV II

Footbridge over River Bollin: dated 1820 by John Mellor of Rainow for Samuel Greg. Bossed pink sandstone. Single segmental arch on low piers carries a narrow footway with a heavy rounded coping standing on 10 rough piers to form an open parapet. Under the arch on the east side is inscription J Mellor 1820.

This bridge is similar to others on the estate and by the mill but is only matched in quality by the Bridge in the Northern Woods (q.v.) and is the only dated example.
