Heyrod Hall Bridge

Road bridge over the Huddersfield & Manchester Railway line, mid-late 1840s, by A S Jee. Rock-faced sandstone with ashlar dressings.

Heyrod Hall Bridge (MVL3/7) is located off Wakefield Road in Heyrod, a semi-rural settlement within the township of Stalybridge, and carries a short private lane leading to Heyrod Hall over the Huddersfield & Manchester Railway line. The bridge is similarly detailed on both sides and is constructed of coursed local sandstone with a segmental arched span incorporating rusticated voussoirs with tooled faces that springs from an ashlar impost band. Above the arch is a projecting carriageway band (designed like a stringcourse) and a low parapet of coursed stone with flat ashlar coping stones incorporating pyramidal stops. The projecting wing walls are splayed.
