Description
Bawtry Bridge is a bridge built in 1810 by Mr. Flavel of Wetherby, which was widened in 1940. It features rock-faced gritstone voussoirs and horizontally-tooled magnesian limestone walling. The bridge has three segmental arches, with the central arch being larger and flanked by triangular cutwaters. The outer arches are supported by buttresses. Both the cutwaters and buttresses rise to the parapet as projecting piers, which are linked by a cambered band that continues across the wing walls, terminating in cylindrical piers set on square bases. The parapet has domed copings. The south side, dated 1940, incorporates the re-used facade from 1810, while the north parapet, facing the road, is inscribed with "Y/N," indicating the county boundary. The bridge was constructed at a cost of £3,000 on a foundation of 144 piles, topped with two thicknesses of planks. It is partly located in the parish of Scaftworth in the County of Nottinghamshire.
