Description

Midhopestones Bridge is a bridge built in the late 18th century, with the year 1788 crudely inscribed on the south-west parapet coping. It is constructed from coursed gritstone blocks and features a large voussoired segmental arch, which is flanked on each side by smaller semicircular arches. The bridge has rounded and domed-headed cutwaters on each side, and a cambered band above that terminates at plain end piers. The splayed-end parapets have chamfered coping.
