Description

SJ 46 NE 4767 6572 2/32 1/3/1967

HOCKENHULL C.P. PLATTS LANE Hockenhull Platts

Central and easternmost "Packhorse Bridges" and adjoining causeway

(formerly listed as Pack horse bridges, E side of group).

II

2 humpback bridges and adjoining causeway: probably later C18. Dressed tooled red sandstone blocks. Bridge over the main channel of the River Gowy has a recessed segmental arch on mass concrete footings, plain parapet and chamfered coping joined by iron ties. Parapet turns and drops to form revetment walls, to approaches on either side. A contemporary stone-revetted causeway runs east to a second smaller bridge over clogged side channel. This is similar except for 2 triangular buttresses on the north side.

The westernmost "Packhorse Bridge" and part of one of these bridges are in Cotton Edmunds parish.
