Description
Saxby Bridge is a mid-19th century bridge built for the Commissioners of the Ancholme Drainage and Navigation. It features a wrought-iron structure with timber decking and squared limestone abutments that have ashlar dressings. The bridge has a single span and a single carriageway width, with the abutments splayed out to the roadway entrances. These abutments are set on sloping riverbanks and each has a broad chamfered plinth that supports the main arches, a moulded cornice at deck level, and a pair of rectangular piers with chamfered plinths and caps on either side of the roadway. These piers are linked by coped dwarf walls and railings to similar outer piers at the entrance. The bridge span consists of three arched ribs with bolted latticed braces, supporting bolted decking and railings with plain vertical bars between the top and bottom rails. This well-designed and well-built bridge remains unaltered except for minor repairs to the deck.
