SOWERBY BRIDGE TOWN HALL STREET County Bridge
GV II
Road bridge across the River Calder. First stone bridge 1517, widened 1632 and again 1875. Coursed squared stone and cast iron. The stone bridge is of three shallow segmental arches supported on piers with triangular-section cutwaters, some of the cutwaters having been rebuilt. These arches are now recessed beneath the 1875 superstructure that widened the bridge deck. This superstructure consists of lattice girders that span between the stone cutwaters on the eastern side and are supported by round iron piers on the western side. The bridge has cast iron balustrades formed by pierced panels, the piercings being regularly and closely spaced with rounded tops and bases. The balustrades have panelled end posts with finials.
