Description

LANCASTER

SD46SE CATON ROAD 1685-1/1/61 (East side (off)) Dolphinlee Bridge (No.105)

II

Accommodation bridge. c1797. Designed by John Rennie (engineer). For the Lancaster Canal Company. Coursed squared sandstone. Semi-elliptical arch with a triple keystone, of which the central part is rock-faced, a band and parapets with rounded copings and rectangular terminals. At the water line in the side of the towpath wall, and on the further side of the arch, are segment-headed recesses with a central slot; these were made to hold temporary shuttering to isolate sections of the canal, and thus prevent water loss in the event of repairs or a breach.
