Description

The Canal Bridge is a late 18th-century overbridge made of coursed rubble gritstone. It features a single semi-circular arch with roughly shaped voussoirs, but it does not have a keyblock. Above the arch head, there is a plain band, and the bridge has shallow rubble parapet walls topped with half round copings. The structure tapers in width from west to east and has splayed abutments. The Cromford Canal, which this bridge crosses, was opened in 1793 and was engineered by William Jessop.

Canal Bridge receives an average of 830 mm of rain a year. This makes it wetter than 53% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is lower than that of 59% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 40 freeze-thaw cycles a year, more than 77% of listed buildings. Of these, 21 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.
