Description

The bridge over the canal, built between 1792 and 1793, carries Meadow Lane over the Nottingham Canal. It was designed by William Jessop and James Green for the Nottingham Canal Company. The structure is made of coursed squared stone, featuring an ashlar string course and coping. It has a single elliptical arch with splayed parapet walls and half-round coping. On the north-east side, there is a fluted cast-iron roller that helps reduce wear on tow ropes as they navigate the nearby bend.

Local climate

Bridge Over Canal sits in a drier-than-average part of the UK, with an average of 720 mm of rain a year. This makes it drier than 83% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is lower than that of 86% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 37 freeze-thaw cycles a year, more than 65% of listed buildings. Of these, 18 follow at least 1 mm of rain in the preceding 48 hours. Average temperatures at this location have risen by 0.3°C per decade since 1991.

Averages for 1991–2020; temperature trend 1991–2025. Figures describe the wider area (a grid cell of roughly 10 km), not the individual site. Contains modified Copernicus Climate Change Service information 2026.
