Description

Salwick Bridge, built around 1797, is a public road bridge over the Lancaster Canal designed by engineer John Rennie. The bridge is constructed from large sandstone blocks and features an elliptical arch with triple keystones. It has bands and parapets with rounded coping, and the ends are plastered, except for the northwest corner, which adjoins the Hand and Dagger public house. The deck is flat due to the canal being in a shallow cutting.

It experiences an average of 25 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 74% of listed buildings. Of these, 10 follow at least 1 mm of rain in the preceding 48 hours. Average temperatures at this location have risen by 0.3°C per decade since 1991.
